RESUMO
A concise total synthesis of defucogilvocarcin V is reported. The key features of the approach are the formation of the C-ring using a vinylogous Knoevenagel/transesterification reaction and construction of the D-ring by way of an inverse electron demand Diels-Alder-driven domino reaction. The resulting C-8 ester functionality provides a handle for the synthesis of defucogilvocarcin V as well as some C-8 analogues from a common late-stage intermediate.

A very short synthesis (5 steps), the crystal structure and resolution of an elaborate, inherently chiral [n](1,6)pyrenophane is reported. The synthesis hinges upon two very productive events: a multicomponent reaction and an unprecedented double-McMurry/valence isomerization/dehydrogenation step. Aromatization reactions are involved in the formation of all four of the rings of the pyrene system.
RESUMO
A multicomponent domino reaction that affords 6H-dibenzo[b,d]pyran-6-ones is reported. The overall transformation consists of six reactions: Knoevenagel condensation, transesterification, enamine formation, an inverse electron demand Diels-Alder (IEDDA) reaction, 1,2-elimination, and transfer hydrogenation. Both the diene and dienophile for the key inverse electron demand Diels-Alder (IEDDA) step are generated in situ by secondary amine-mediated processes. In most cases, the yields (10-79%) are considerably better than those obtained using a stepwise process. This methodology is employed in a concise total synthesis of cannabinol.

A set of coumarin-fused electron-deficient 1,3-dienes was synthesized, which differ in the nature of the electron-withdrawing group (EWG) at the terminus of the diene unit and (when EWG = CO(2)Me) the nature and position of substituents. These dienes reacted with the enamine derived from cyclopentanone and pyrrolidine to afford the corresponding cyclopenteno-fused 6H-dibenzo[b,d]pyran-6-ones, most likely via a domino inverse electron demand Diels-Alder (IEDDA)/elimination/transfer hydrogenation sequence. The parent diene (EWG = CO(2)Me, no substituents) was reacted with a range of electron-rich dienophiles (mostly enamines) to afford the corresponding 6H-dibenzo[b,d]pyran-6-ones or their nondehydrogenated precursors, which were aromatized upon treatment with a suitable oxidant. The enamines could either be synthesized prior to the reaction or generated in situ. The syntheses of 30 dibenzopyranones are reported.
