Formal syntheses of tetracyclic terpenoids frondosin B and liphagal are described. Both synthetic routes rely on the use of platinum-catalyzed α,β-unsaturated carbene formation for the key C-C bond forming transformations. The successful route toward frondosin B utilizes a formal (4 + 3) cycloaddition, while the liphagal synthesis features the vinylogous addition of an enol nucleophile as a key step. Both synthetic routes are discussed, revealing insights into structural requirements in the catalytic a,β-unsaturated carbene reaction manifold.

A recently developed (4+3) cycloaddition between dienes and furfuryl alcohols, as precursors of oxyallyl-type cations, has been used as a key step in the racemic syntheses of two natural products: frondosin B and liphagal. This work demonstrates the synthetic potential of this cycloaddition reaction, and offers a short synthetic route to an interesting family of natural products. A full account of these synthetic studies is presented, further illustrating the mechanism, scope, and limitations of this straightforward synthetic method for seven-membered rings. Cycloheptanes: Furfuryl alcohols serve as effective three-carbon dienophiles for a wide range of dienes in stereoselective cycloaddition reactions. This efficient reaction has been used to prepare two cycloheptanoid natural products, offering a conceptually straightforward and short synthetic entry into a biologically interesting class of polycyclic meroterpenoids (see scheme; TFA = trifluoroacetic acid).

Me2AlCl-catalyzed Diels-Alder reaction of N-tigloyloxazolidinone with 6,6-dimethyl-1-vinylcyclohexene selectively provided the exo adduct, which was converted to nosyberkol (isotuberculosinol) and tuberculosinol. The spectral data for nosyberko
