Total syntheses of the labdane diterpene lactones marrubiin, marrulibacetal, desertine, marrulibacetal A, marrubasch F, cyllenine C, marrulanic acid, and marrulactone are described. The trans-decalin moiety of these molecules was constructed in a stereoselective manner by a Pauson-Khand reaction, and the resultant cyclopentenone was oxidatively cleaved for formation of the lactone ring. Elongation of the side chain at C9 was achieved by an epoxide-opening reaction with a variety of nucleophiles, and the functional group manipulations completed the syntheses of these natural products. Stereochemistries of desertine could be established by the transformations.

A concise route to the common polyketide fragment5of crocacin A-D (1-4) is presented which has previously been converted into all members of this fungicidal and cytotoxic family of dipeptidic natural products by various means. Our synthesis features asyn-selective titanium aldol reaction controlled by a valinol-derived auxiliary, a zinc-mediated, palladium-catalyzedanti-selective addition of propargyl mesylate10to the chiral aldehyde9, as well as a comparison of palladium-catalyzed Stille and Suzuki cross-coupling reactions for the formation of the diene moiety of the target.

The 1,3-butadiene motif is widely found in many natural products and drug candidates with relevant biological activities. Moreover, dienes are important targets for synthetic chemists, due to their ability to give access to a wide range of functional group transformations, including a broad range of C-C bond-forming processes. Therefore, the stereoselective preparation of dienes have attracted much attention over the past decades, and the search for new synthetic protocols continues unabated. The aim of this review is to give an overview of the diverse methodologies that have emerged in the last decade, with a focus on the synthetic processes that meet the requirements of efficiency and sustainability of modern organic chemistry.
