- A concise total synthesis of (±)-minfiensine
-
A concise total synthesis of (±)-minfiensine using all conventional methods and starting from commercial materials has been completed. The synthesis features a Fischer indole synthesis, a Heck alkylation of an intermediate ketone enolate, conversion of a ketone carbonyl into an epoxide, and transformation of the latter into an allylic alcohol.

- ABC ! ABCE/D based approaches to the pentacyclic ring system of the vinca alkaloids using intramolecular hetero-[2+2]cycloaddition and gold(i)-catalysed 6-endo-dig cyclisation protocols
-
The angularly substituted tetrahydrocarbazole 13, which is readily obtained from cyclohexane-1,4-dione monoethylene ketal (6) using Fischer indole chemistry, has been converted into the isothiocyanate 16. Photolysis of this last compound affords, via an intramolecular hetero-[2+2]cycloaddition reaction, the pentacyclic "-thiolactam 17 that incorporates the ABCE ring substructure of natural products 1-3. Attempts to effect a two-carbon homologation of the four-membered ring within compound 17, and thereby establish the D-ring, failed. The azide 20, also obtained from compound 13, forms the cyclic imine 21 on thermolysis in refluxing toluene and the readily derived enamide 23 engages in a Au(I)-catalysed 6-endo-dig cyclisation reaction to give compound 24 embodying the ABCDE ring system of the title alkaloids.

- Direct Synthesis of Indoles from Azoarenes and Ketones with Bis(neopentylglycolato)diboron Using 4,4′-Bipyridyl as an Organocatalyst
-
Multifunctionalized indole derivatives were prepared by reducing azoarenes in the presence of ketones and bis(neopentylglycolato)diboron (B2nep2) with a catalytic amount of 4,4′-bipyridyl under neutral reaction conditions, where 4,4′-bipyridyl acted as an organocatalyst to activate the B-B bond of B2nep2 and form N,N′-diboryl-1,2-diarylhydrazines as key intermediates. Further reaction of N,N′-diboryl-1,2-diarylhydrazines with ketones afforded N-vinyl-1,2-diarylhydrazines, which rearranged to the corresponding indoles via the Fischer indole mechanism. This organocatalytic system was applied to diverse alkyl cyclic ketones, dialkyl, and alkyl/aryl ketones, including heteroatoms. Methyl alkyl ketones gave the corresponding 2-methyl-3-substituted indoles in a regioselective manner. This protocol allowed us to expand the preparation of indoles having high compatibility with not only electron-donating and electron-withdrawing groups but also N- and O-protecting functional groups.

- Selective N1/N4 1,4-Cycloaddition of 1,2,4,5-Tetrazines Enabled by Solvent Hydrogen Bonding
-
An unprecedented 1,4-cycloaddition (vs 3,6-cycloaddition) of 1,2,4,5-tetrazines is described with preformed or in situ generated aryl-conjugated enamines promoted by the solvent hydrogen bonding of hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP) that is conducted under mild reaction conditions (0.1 M HFIP, 25 °C, 12 h). The reaction constitutes a formal [4 + 2] cycloaddition across the two nitrogen atoms (N1/N4) of the 1,2,4,5-tetrazine followed by a formal retro [4 + 2] cycloaddition loss of a nitrile and aromatization to generate a 1,2,4-triazine derivative. The factors that impact the remarkable change in the reaction mode, optimization of reaction parameters, the scope and simplification of its implementation through in situ enamine generation from aldehydes and ketones, the reaction scope for 3,6-bis(thiomethyl)-1,2,4,5-tetrazine, a survey of participating 1,2,4,5-tetrazines, and key mechanistic insights into this reaction are detailed. Given its simplicity and breath, the study establishes a novel method for the simple and efficient one-step synthesis of 1,2,4-triazines under mild conditions from readily accessible starting materials. Whereas alternative protic solvents (e.g., MeOH vs HFIP) provide products of the conventional 3,6-cycoladdition, the enhanced hydrogen bonding capability of HFIP uniquely results in promotion of the unprecedented formal 1,4-cycloaddition. As such, the studies represent an example of not just an enhancement in the rate or efficiency of a heterocyclic azadiene cycloaddition by hydrogen bonding catalysis but also the first to alter the mode (N1/N4 vs C3/C6) of cycloaddition.

- Enantioselective Total Synthesis of (+)-Hinckdentine A via a Catalytic Dearomatization Approach
-
Optically pure hinckdentine A was synthesized on a 300 mg scale via an asymmetric catalysis-based strategy. The key steps to the first asymmetric synthesis involved (i) enantioselective dearomative cyclization of an achiral N-acyl indole that allowed for the efficient construction of the key polycyclic indoline intermediate with a crucial tetrasubstituted stereogenic carbon center, (ii) Beckmann fragmentation-mediated ring expansion, (iii) rearrangement-based introduction of an anilinic nitrogen atom, (iv) regioselective tribromination, and (v) final closure of the cyclic amidine moiety.

- Asymmetric chemoenzymatic synthesis of ramatroban using lipases and oxidoreductases
-
A chemoenzymatic asymmetric route for the preparation of enantiopure (R)-ramatroban has been developed for the first time. The action of lipases and oxidoreductases has been independently studied, and both were found as excellent biocatalysts for the production of adequate chiral intermediates under very mild reaction conditions. CAL-B efficiently catalyzed the resolution of (±)-2,3,4,9-tetrahydro-1H-carbazol-3-ol that was acylated with high stereocontrol. On the other hand, ADH-A mediated bioreduction of 4,9-dihydro-1H-carbazol-3(2H)-one provided an alternative access to the same enantiopure alcohol previously obtained through lipase-catalyzed resolution, a useful synthetic building block in the synthesis of ramatroban. Inversion of the absolute configuration of (S)-2,3,4,9-tetrahydro-1H-carbazol-3-ol has been identified as a key point in the synthetic route, optimizing this process to avoid racemization of the azide intermediate, finally yielding (R)-ramatroban in enantiopure form by the formation of the corresponding amine and the convenient functionalization of both exocyclic and indole nitrogen atoms.
