An improved total synthesis of (8S,11R,12R)- and (8R,11R,12R)-topsentolide B2 diastereomers has been completed in eight steps with overall yields of 10.2% and 10.4%, respectively. The key steps involve a regioselective asymmetric dihydroxylation, diastereoselective Roush allylation, and ring closing metathesis. The stereochemistry of natural topsentolide B2 has been determined to be (8S,11R,12R) by comparison of the specific rotation.

A new transition-metal-free one-pot cascade process for the direct conversion of alcohols to nitriles was developed without introducing an “additional carbon atom”. This protocol allows transformations of readily available, inexpensive, and abundant alcohols to highly valuable nitriles.

Anti-inflammatory: The efficient and general synthetic route to the elusive epoxyisoprostanoid phospholipids PECPC and PEIPC, along with the isoprostanoids EC and EI, relies on a number of stereo- and chemoselective steps, including a C-H insertion for the rapid construction of the cyclopentanone ring. The synthesized compounds display unprecedented biological activity in reducing the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Copyright
