Synthetic studies pertaining to a novel class of structurally related glycosidic 14-membered macrolides of marine origin are reported. The evolution of a versatile aldol-based strategy that culminated in the total syntheses of callipeltoside A and aurisides A and B is detailed. Using a combination of biogenetic considerations and conformational analysis, a revised stereochemical assignment for the related polyketide dolastatin 19 was proposed and validated by total synthesis.

The first total synthesis of the complex hexacylic Daphniphyllum alkaloid (–)-daphlongamine H in enantioenriched form has been accomplished. Key to the success of the strategy are a complexity-building Mannich reaction, efficient cyclizations, and a highly diastereoselective hydrogenation to assemble multigram quantities of the tricyclic core bearing four contiguous stereocenters. Following construction of the hydro-indene substructure by means of a Pauson–Khand reaction, endgame redox manipulations delivered the natural product. Importantly, the synthetic studies have also given access to (–)-isodaphlongamine H and led to a revision of the reported structure of deoxyisocalyciphylline B, which resulted in the proposal of a modified biosynthetic pathway to the calyciphylline B-type alkaloids.

Heterogeneity of meroterpenoids arising from their dual biosynthetic origins is constantly provoking synthetic chemists to utilize their ingenuity and revise their retrosynthetic logic. By studying recent publications on meroterpenoid synthesis,tremendous advances in the field of synthetic organic chemistry can be witnessed. This feature article covers some of the most intriguing total syntheses and synthetic studies towards the meroterpenoid class of natural products from the last five years.

Quindoline is one of the simplest naturally occurring monomeric indoloquinoline alkaloids. Chemists exhibited interest in this compound before it was isolated from a natural source. The different approaches toward the total synthesis of the natural product and its performance in various biological tests are discussed. Aspects related to the isolation of quindoline from different ethnomedicinally relevant plants around the world are also reviewed.1 Introduction2 Isolation and Biogenetic Considerations3 Total Syntheses of Quindoline3.1 Early Synthetic Studies3.2 Syntheses from Benzenoids3.3 Syntheses from Indoles3.4 Syntheses from Quinolines4 Biological Activity Studies5 Conclusions

Aurilides are a class of depsipeptides occurring mainly in marine cyanobacteria. Members of the aurilide family have shown to exhibit strong cytotoxicity against various cancer cell lines. These compounds bear a pentapeptide, a polyketide, and an α-hydroxy ester subunit in their structure. A large number of remarkable studies on aurilides have emerged since 1996. This comprehensive account summarizes the biological activities and total syntheses of natural compounds of the aurilide family as well as their synthetic analogues.
