(Chemical Equation Presented) Efficient and unusually concise total syntheses of both enantiomers of the Aspidosperma alkaloids 4-desacetoxy-6,7- dihydrovindorosine (12) and minovine (1) are detailed. A tandem intramolecular Diels-Alder/1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of the 1,3,4-oxadiazole 8, in which three new rings, four new C-C bonds, and five stereocenters are formed, is a key step in the sequence. The availability of optically active material permitted an assessment of the enantiomeric integrity of minovine and the source of its reported unusual optical rotation.

A new approach for the divergent total syntheses of (±)-vincaminorine, (±)-N-methylquebrachamine, (±)-quebrachamine, (±)-minovine and (±)-vincadifformine, each in less than 10 linear steps starting from a single δ-lactam building block, is reported. Key to our route design is the late-stage generation of reactive enamine functionality from stable indole-linked δ-lactams via a highly chemoselective iridium(I)-catalyzed reduction. The efficiently formed secodine intermediates subsequently undergo either a formal Diels–Alder cycloaddition or a competitive Michael addition/reduction to access aspidosperma-type alkaloids in excellent diastereoselectivities. Product selectivity could be controlled by changing the indole N-protecting group in the reductive cyclization precursors. An asymmetric variant of this synthetic strategy for the synthesis of (+)-20-epi-ibophyllidine is also described.

A concise 11-step total synthesis of (-)- and ent-(+)-vindoline (3) is detailed based on a unique tandem intramolecular [4 + 2]/[3 + 2] cycloaddition cascade of a 1,3,4-oxadiazole inspired by the natural product structure, in which three rings and four C-C bonds are formed central to the characteristic pentacyclic ring system setting all six stereocenters and introducing essentially all the functionality found in the natural product in a single step. As key elements of the scope and stereochemical features of the reaction were defined, a series of related natural products of increasing complexity were prepared by total synthesis including both enantiomers of minovine (4), 4-desacetoxy-6,7-dihydrovindorosine (5), 4-desacetoxyvindorosine (6), and vindorosine (7) as well as /V-methylaspidospermidine (11). Subsequent extensions of the approach provided both enantiomers of 6,7-dihydrovindoline (8), 4-desacetoxyvindoline (9), and 4-desacetoxy-6,7-dihydrovindoline (10).
