A concise enantioselective total synthesis of three sesquiterpenoid alkaloids - (-)-dendrobine, (-)-mubironine B, and (-)-dendroxine - is presented, which highlights the state-of-art catalytic methods, including enantioselective Diels-Alder cycloaddition, iron-catalyzed aerobic lactonization, copper-catalyzed cycloisomerization, and free-radical-initiated hydroazidation.

1-Methoxy-3-trimethylsiloxy-1,3-butadiene (Danishefsky-s diene) is recognized as a synthetically useful diene due to its high reactivity in the Diels-Alder reaction with electron-deficient alkenes to give oxygen-functionalyzed cyclohexenes and substituted cyclohexenones, which are important building blocks for the total synthesis of natural products. However, the development of catalytic enantioselective versions of Diels-Alder reactions using Danishefsky type dienes with electron-deficient alkenes has been difficult because of the instability of the dienes under Lewis acidic conditions. Only highly reactive C=O and C=N double bonds are employed in a hetero-Diels-Alder reaction which proceeds under catalysis of chiral Lewis acids. We have developed a new chiral ligand, BINAMIDE, which is easily prepared from 1,1′-binaphtyl-2,2′-diamine by acylation. The highly diastereo- and enantioselective Diels-Alder reaction of Danishefsky type dienes with electron-deficient alkenes in the presence of an Yb(III)-BINAMIDE complex has been developed. The reaction proceeded in an exoselective mode and gave chiral highly functionalized cyclohexene derivatives in good yields. Copyright
