A catalytic stereoselective total synthesis of centrolobine and engelheptanoxides A and C has been completed via a metal-free catalytic δ-hydroxyalkynone rearrangement to 2,3-dihydro-4H-pyran-4-one and diastereoselective hydrogenation to the all syn-2,4,6-trisubstituted pyran strategy. The onliest required chirality was introduced by Jacobsen kinetic resolution, which further directed the diastereoselective hydrogenation. A first stereoselective synthesis of engelheptanoxide A is also accomplished. The analogues and derivatives of centrolobine and engelheptanoxides prepared were evaluated for antitubercular activity against M. tuberculosis H37Rv ATCC 27294.
