(Chemical Equation Presented) A concise and enantioselective total synthesis of (+)-aigialospirol is described here, featuring the first complex natural product synthesis that employs a cyclic ketal-tethered ring-closing metathesis strategy and an unexpected stereoselective epimerization of a benzylic hydroxyl group. The 15-step synthetic sequence illustrates the proof-of-concept that such an approach can be competitive with the classical spiroketal formation in the natural product synthesis.

A triflic acid (TfOH) mediated sequential cyclization of ortho-alkynylarylesters and ammonium acetate (NH4OAc) was reported. The reaction took place via a Br?nsted acid-mediated intramolecular cyclization of ortho-alkynylarylesters followed by an ammonium acetate participated substitution reaction, forming isoquinolin-1-ones as the major products. Different from most of the known synthetic methods of isoquinolin-1-ones, no metal catalyst was required in the reported reaction. The regioisomers – isoindolin-1-ones were obtained together with isoquinolin-1-ones in a few cases. The intermediate compounds – isochromen-1-ones and isobenzofuran-1-ones were also isolated. The interconversion experiments showed that the regioisomers formed during the Br?nsted acid induced intramolecular cyclization of ortho-alkynylarylesters. A natural product – ruprechstyril was prepared in a moderate yield employing the new method.
Two remarkable epimerizations imperative for the success of an asymmetric total synthesis of (+)-aigialospirol

Two remarkable epimerization processes were uncovered during our pursuit of an enantioselective synthesis of (+)-aigialospirol featuring a cyclic acetal tethered ring-closing metathesis. Through modeling, we were able to turn these two unexpected epimeriz
Convergent stereospecific synthesis of C292 (or LL-Z1640-2), and hypothemycin. Part 1

The stereospecific synthesis of the precursors required for the 14-membered ring formation either via an intramolecular Suzuki coupling or via an intermolecular Suzuki coupling followed by a macrolactonisation is herein reported. One-pot Suzuki couplings were here achieved with vinyldisiamylboranes which were generated in situ from the related chiral precursor. The present convergent approach of C292 (or LL-Z1640-2) and hypothemycin gives a flexible access to related macrolides.
