An efficient synthetic route to install chiral 1,3-dimethyl units through a double Michael reaction of crotonaldehyde and nitromethane catalyzed by diphenylprolinol silyl ether is developed. Either 1,3-syn- or 1,3-anti-dimethyl units are obtained selectively depending on the enantiomer of the diphenylprolinol silyl ether catalyst used. The side chain of pneumocandin B0 is synthesized enantioselectively by using the present method as a key step.

Herein, we report antibacterial and antifungal evaluation of a series of previously prepared (+)-tanikolide analogues. One analogue, (4S,6S)-4-methyltanikolide, displayed promising anti-methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus activity with a MIC of 12.5 µg/mL. Based on the antimicrobial properties of the structurally related (−)-malyngolide, two further analogues (4S,6S)-4-methylmalyngolide and (4R,6S)-4-methylmalyngolide bearing a shortened n-nonyl alkyl side chain were prepared in the present study using a ZrCl4-catalysed deprotection/cyclisation as the key step in their asymmetric synthesis. When these were tested for activity against anti-methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, the MIC increased to 50 µg/mL.

The terpene core structure of suaveolindoles was synthesized through a concise route in a time-economical manner. A scalable synthetic route from pulegone delivered the desired α,β,γ,δ-unsaturated ester in a brief period. By way of Eschenmoser-Claisen rearrangement, carbon side chain moiety at the crowded double-allylic position was introduced stereoselectively.

The first catalytic asymmetric synthesis of the key intermediate for beraprost has been achieved through an enantioselective intramolecular oxa-Michael reaction of an α,β-unsaturated amide mediated by a newly developed benzothiadiazine catalyst. The Weinreb amide moiety and bromo substituent of the Michael adduct were utilized for the C–C bond formations to construct the scaffold. All four contiguous stereocenters of the tricyclic core were controlled via Rh-catalyzed stereoselective C–H insertion and the subsequent reduction from the convex face.
