RESUMO
This study analyzes the feasibility of utilizing the catalytic and enantioselective [4 + 2] cycloaddition of sterically demanding heterocycle-incorporated siloxydienes to yield polycyclic skeletons with a tetrasubstituted carbon. A catalyst derived from lanthanide triflimide enabled the reaction. The mechanistic investigations and transformations of the adducts are also discussed. The proposed approach facilitates the synthesis of intricate polysubstituted skeletons, each with multiple contiguous chiral centers, thereby aiding in the production of diverse hydrocarbazoles for drug discovery purposes.
RESUMO
We have developed a nickel-catalysed regio- and stereoselective hydrocyanation of alkynoates that gives syn-ß-cyanoalkenes. DFT calculations suggest that a favored transition state promotes Cα-H bond formation for determining regio- and stereoselectivity of the products.
RESUMO
An efficient synthesis of carbo- and heterocycles using C[double bond, length as m-dash]C, C[double bond, length as m-dash]O and C[double bond, length as m-dash]N bonds under cobalt catalysis is described. The substituents on olefins are key for controlling the regio- and chemoselectivity in the initial hydrogen atom transfer step and quaternary carbons are efficiently constructed under mild conditions. Cyclopropane cleavage and tandem cyclization give highly functionalized bicyclic skeletons in a single operation.
RESUMO
Cyano (CN) groups are equivalent to carbonyl as well as amino- and hydroxymethyl groups. Therefore, their catalytic introduction under metal catalysis is an important issue in synthetic organic chemistry. Ni-catalyzed hydrocyanation is one of the most well-investigated, powerful tools for installing a CN group. However, it is still difficult to control chemo- and regioselectivity. In this review, the author uses allenes to enable regio-, stereo-, and face-selective transformations to natural product synthesis and axial chirality transfer.

The transfer of axial chirality of allenes is beginning to be exploited as a powerful method for creating central chirality, particularly through the use of transition metal catalysis. In this communication, the transfer of axial chirality of chiral allenes via nickel-catalysed hydrocyanation is achieved through both regio- and face-selective hydronickelation as well as regioselective reductive elimination. This protocol was applied to 12 substrates and gave chiral carbonitriles with up to 97% ee. Further application to hydrocyanative cyclization using a chiral allene-yne is also presented, along with a discussion of the corresponding mechanism of racemization.
RESUMO
Enantioselective total syntheses of the Kopsia alkaloids (+)-grandilodineâ C and (+)-lapidilectineâ B were accomplished. A key intermediate, spirodiketone, was synthesized in 3â steps and converted into the chiral enone by enantioselective deprotonation followed by oxidation with up to 76 % ee. Lactone formation was achieved through stereoselective vinylation followed by allylation and ozonolysis. The total synthesis of (+)-grandilodineâ C was achieved by palladium-catalyzed intramolecular allylic amination and ring-closing metathesis to give 8- and 5-membered heterocycles, respectively. Selective reduction of a lactam carbonyl gave (+)-lapidilectineâ B. The absolute stereochemistry of both natural products was thereby confirmed. These syntheses enable the scalable preparation of the above alkaloids for biological studies.
RESUMO
A total synthesis of (±)-lundurinesâ A and B is described. These natural products have a unique hexacyclic skeleton which includes a cyclopropane-fused indoline. A stereospecific construction of the pentasubstituted cyclopropane core was achieved, by radical cyclization using SmI2, with perfect stereoselectivity. Cyclizations to give seven- and five-membered heterocycles, under palladium and ruthenium catalysis, respectively, accomplished the total syntheses. The late-stage construction of the Fâ ring by ring-closing metathesis enabled access to the title compounds from a spiroindoline intermediate which is a common structure of other kopsia alkaloids.

Here, we describe a unique reactivity of isatogen derivatives bearing a hydroxy group at the C3-position (isatogenol) and their synthetic application to highly regio- and stereoselective [3 + 2] cycloaddition reactions. This method provides facile access to polyfused and highly functionalized heterocycles including consecutive stereocenters. Furthermore, DFT calculations revealed that hydrogen bonding is a key to controlling the regio- and stereoselectivity in the cycloaddition using acrylates.
RESUMO
Anti carbocyanative cyclization using 1,6-enynes under nickel catalysis is described. This reaction is triggered by hydronickelation to alkenes followed by carbometalation. Steric repulsion caused by the bulky substituents on alkynes promotes isomerization of the carbon-carbon double bond geometry in an organonickel intermediate to introduce both alkyl and cyano groups in an anti fashion.

The carbocyanative cyclization of allene-ynes and bis-allenes under nickel catalysis is described. The key steps are the regioselective hydronickelation of allenes and subsequent cyclization via carbometalation. The former step determines the reaction pathway, and the latter controls the stereochemistry of substituted olefins. The products are useful carbo- and heterocycles that include a cyano group, functionalized double bonds, and quaternary carbons.

A proposed structure for schizocommunin (Z)-1(hydroxy) and its geometric isomer (E)-1(hydroxy), which exist in a keto form, has been synthesized. However, the spectroscopic data of (Z)-1(keto) and (E)-1(keto) were not consistent with those reported for natural schizocommunin. After reinvestigating the spectral data for natural schizocommunin, we synthesized the quinazolinone derivative (Z)-2 as a revised structure for schizocommunin. All of the spectral data of (Z)-2 were completely identical to those reported for natural schizocommunin. (Z)-2 showed moderate antiproliferative activity.

Female megalourethra is an extremely rare congenital disorder which is usually associated with Müllerian anomalies. We describe a case of an iatrogenic bladder foreign body and a megalourethra in a young woman with normal gynecological organs.
RESUMO
Vinylallenes have been recognized as versatile C2 and C4 components for nickel-catalyzed intramolecular [4+2] and [2+2] cycloadditions. The former reaction was promoted by a Ni(0) complex (up to quantitative yield), and a Ni(II) salt was a key species for the latter reaction to give the corresponding regio- and stereocontrolled cycloadducts (up to 88% yield). DFT studies revealed that both reaction pathways involve a concerted mechanism through the activation of different C-C multiple bonds in the substrates.
RESUMO
A palladium-catalyzed dicyanative [4+2] cycloaddition reaction using dienynes with TMSCN under aerobic conditions is described. This new reaction triggered by the cyanopalladation of terminal alkynes includes regioselective direct cyanation to C-C triple bonds by TMSCN to give pi-allyl Pd intermediates, which promotes 5-exo followed by 6-endo cyclization. This protocol enables (1) the formation of four C-C bonds through one operation, (2) the construction of highly functionalized cyclohexene rings, and (3) the generation of five contiguous stereogenic centers in one operation. The intermolecular cycloaddition reaction between a conjugated enyne and methyl acrylate also proceeded in a regioselective fashion to give multifunctionalized carbocycles.

Palladium-catalyzed dicyanative [4 + 2] cycloaddition using various ene-enynes was investigated. The key species in this process is a cyanoallene intermediate that is obtained by the cyanopalladation of conjugated enynes followed by 5-exo-cyclization. To achieve an efficient [4 + 2] cycloaddition reaction, both the smooth generation of this species and critical control of regioselectivity in the 6-endo-cyclization step are quite important. A study of the substrate scope revealed that the reaction is strongly affected by the steric bulk of the substituents on the enyne and alkene units and prefers to give trans-fused cycloadducts. The stereochemistry of olefins was reasonably transferred to the corresponding products. Further study proved that this transformation includes not a thermal [4 + 2] cycloaddition process via 1,2-dicyanoalkenes generated in situ but rather a palladium-mediated stepwise cyclization sequence to control a maximum of five contiguous stereogenic centers in a single operation. An intermolecular version using methyl acrylate with conjugated cyclic enynes and TMSCN also gave the corresponding [4 + 2] cycloadducts in a regioselective manner.

A new and facile access to cinnolines, dihydrocinnolines, and 1-aminoindolines was established by use of diazo functionalities. The hydrazines and hydrazones as cyclization precursors derived from 3-haloaryl-3-hydroxy-2-diazopropanoates, which are prepared by one-pot procedure utilizing phase-transfer catalysis, are successfully converted to the corresponding nitrogen heterocycle by Cu-catalyzed N-arylation. Furthermore, analysis of UV spectra proved that 4-oxo-3-carboxylates predominantly exist not as 4-hydroxycinnoline (enol form) but as cinnolone (keto form).

This review focuses on the total synthesis of lundurines A-C. Their main structural feature is a unique cyclopropa[b]indole core that has been found only in these alkaloids. In addition to this characteristic structure, the biological activity makes them as attractive synthetic targets. However, almost two decades passed from their isolation and structural determination in 1995 to their first total synthesis. The first part of this review summarizes the synthetic approaches to the tri- and tetracyclic ring systems of lundurine as well as an inter- and intramolecular cyclopropanation strategy that gives the cyclopropa[b]indole core. The second part presents a detailed description of four total syntheses that were reported from 2014 to 2016. In addition, the asymmetric total synthesis of the related alkaloids grandilodine C and lapidilectine B is described.
