Diverse 1,2- and 1,2,5-substituted pyrroles were efficiently prepared through a regioselective functionalization of 2-formylpyr-role (<strong>5a</strong>). This methodology was applied for the first total synthesis of pyrrolemarumine (<strong>4b</strong>), the aglycone of the corresponding natural pyr-role alkaloid 4”-O-a-L-rhamnopyranoside. The synthesis of <strong>4b</strong> was achieved starting from 5a through a seven-step process in 28% over-all yield.

The development of porphyrin synthesis is illustrated, using classic and modern-day examples, which attempt to provide insights, including mechanistic ones, into the most used methods for porphyrin ring-construction and selective functionalization.

Studies involving selective functionalization of the indole unit in a number of bisindole alkaloids and related synthetic derivatives are described. These investigations include such reagents as tert-butyl hydroperoxide, which provides an efficient procedure for epoxidation of olefinic linkages, mercuric acetate, osmium tetroxide, and iodine under basic conditions and oxygenation under acidic conditions. Efficient syntheses of leurosine (8) and various novel vinblastine derivatives are developed.

A simple approach was developed for the solvent-free regioselective functionalization of carbohydrate polyols with 4-toluesulfonyl (tosyl) group, allowing the easy and quick activation of a saccharide site with a tosylate leaving group. The method is based on the use of catalytic dibutyltin oxide and tetrabuylammonium bromide (TBAB), and a moderate excess of N,N-diisopropylethyl amine (DIPEA) and tosyl chloride (TsCl), leading to the selective functionalization at 75 °C of a secondary equatorial hydroxy function flanked by an axial one in a pyranoside. The procedure is endowed with several advantages, such as the use of cheap reagents, experimental simplicity, and the need for reduced reaction times in comparison with other known approaches.

Ethylene is the simplest unsaturated hydrocarbon, yet it has profound effects on plant growth and development, including many agriculturally important phenomena. Analysis of the mechanisms underlying ethylene biosynthesis and signalling have resulted in the elucidation of multistep mechanisms which at first glance appear simple, but in fact represent several levels of control to tightly regulate the level of production and response. Ethylene biosynthesis represents a two-step process that is regulated at both the transcriptional and post-translational levels, thus enabling plants to control the amount of ethylene produced with regard to promotion of responses such as climacteric flower senescence and fruit ripening. Ethylene production subsequently results in activation of the ethylene response, as ethylene accumulation will trigger the ethylene signalling pathway to activate ethylene-dependent transcription for promotion of the response and for resetting the pathway. A more detailed knowledge of the mechanisms underlying biosynthesis and the ethylene response will ultimately enable new approaches to be developed for control of the initiation and progression of ethylene-dependent developmental processes, many of which are of horticultural significance.
