AbstractWe describe the first total synthesis of the recently discovered pyrano[3,2-a]carbazole alkaloid clausenalansine A. The synthetic strategy for the construction of this formylpyrano[3,2-a]carbazole is based on a sequence of Buchwald–Hartwig coupling, palladium(II)-catalyzed oxidative cyclization, Lewis acid promoted annulation of the pyran ring, and chemoselective oxidation of a methyl to a formyl group.

The relative stereochemistry of methyl 2-phthalimido-1- trimethylsilyloxybicyclo[2.2.2]oct-5-ene-2-carboxylate (9) and its 5,6-epoxide (10), intermediates in a synthetic approach to the amino acid antibiotic anticapsin, were established by the TiCl4-mediated cyclization of (10) to the carbolactone (12); the structure of which was proved by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. Full-matrix least- squares refinement of all atomic parameters with individual isotropic thermal parameters for the hydrogen atoms by using 1446 reflections converged at R 0.036. Crystals of (12) are monoclinic, P21/c, a 12.342(3), b 12.239(2), c 13.405(3) Ǻ, β 99.34(2)°, Z 4.

The X-ray crystal structure of 5,5-dimethyl-2-phenylimino-Δ3-1,3,4-thiadiazoline, C10H11N3S, has been determined. The compound is monoclinic, P21/c (No. 14), with a = 13.200(5), b = 6.340(4), and c = 13.823(4) Å, β = 113.50(4)°, and Z = 4. The structure was determined by direct methods and refined to R = 0.061, Rw = 0.067 for 1277 unique reflections. The molecule has the Z configuration. The thiadiazoline ring is planar. C—N and N=N bond lengths are within the normal range. The C—S bond lengths are similar to those we have observed previously in thiazolidines. Angles differ markedly from an expected average 108°. The small C—S—C angle (90.6(2)°) is accompanied by larger C—N=N angles (114.9(3), 117.8(3)°). The phenyl ring is not coplanar with the thiadiazoline ring (dihedral angle 38.6(4)°) because of repulsive interaction of the phenyl o-hydrogen atom with the sulphur atom.

<p>Carbohydrate-derived cyclopropanes combine both the stereochemical wealth of carbohydrates and the reactivity of cyclopropanes. A diverse variety of reaction modes for these cyclopropyl carbohydrates can be harnessed for the synthesis of natural products and other targets.  The natural products (−)-TAN-2483A and (−)-TAN-2483B are fungal secondary metabolites displaying a variety of bioactivities such as inhibition of c-src kinase action and parathyroid hormone-induced bone resorption. This thesis described several synthetic approaches to the natural product (−)-TAN-2483B and analogues of (−)-TAN-2483B employing cyclopropane ring expansion.  The synthetic route to (−)-TAN-2483B began with the readily available substrate D-mannose. The pyran ring unsaturation of the natural product was established by a cyclopropanation-ring expansion sequence. A synthetic strategy via dichlorocyclopropane-based intermediates is described in chapter 2. This being unsuccessful, an alternative approach via 2-fomyl-glycal was developed in chapter 3. The chapter 2 and 3 provided a solid background for the achievement of the analogues synthesis illustrated in chapter 4 via dibromocyclopropane. Lewis acid-mediated alkynylation followed by Pdcatalysed carbonylative lactonisation was successfully utilised in the revelation of the furo[3,4-b]pyran ring skeleton. This route afforded analogues of TAN-2483B; the Z-and E-unsaturated ethyl esters 140 and 141 and hydroxy(−)-TAN-2483B 145. The total synthesis of (−)-TAN-2483B was not achieved due to unforeseen obstacles encountered in the deoxygenation of the side arm of 335 (Chapter 4) into the E-propenyl side arm of (−)-TAN-2483B.</p>

This article reviews studies regarding the total synthesis of phaeosphaerides A and B, nitrogen-containing bicyclic natural products isolated from an endophytic fungus. Numerous synthetic efforts and an X-ray crystal structure analysis of phaeosphaeride A have enabled revision of its originally proposed structure. In addition, a successful protic acid-mediated transformation of phaeosphaeride A to phaeosphaeride B revealed the hypothetical biosynthesis of phaeosphaeride B from phaeosphaeride A. Structure–activity relationship studies of phaeosphaeride derivatives are also discussed.
