Metal homoenolates are valuable synthetic intermediates which provide access to β-functionalized ketones. In this report, we disclose a Ni-catalyzed β-alkylation reaction of cyclopropanol-derived homoenolates using redox-active N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI) esters as the alkylating reagents. The reaction is compatible with 1°, 2°, and 3° NHPI esters. Mechanistic studies imply radical activation of the NHPI ester and 2e β-carbon elimination occurring on the cyclopropanol.

A recently developed new and divergent approach for the solid-phase synthesis of polyamines and polyamine derivatives was extended to the preparation of linear pentamines, and it was applied to the synthesis of three quartets of isomeric polyamine spider toxins. The twelve synthetic acylpolyamines were investigated by HPLC-UV(DAD)-MS and HPLC-UV(DAD)-MS/MS and compared with the natural products in the complex mixture of the venom of Agelenopsis aperta. The comparative investigation supported the structures and assignments of seven previously found toxins and allowed the identification of an additional five polyamine derivatives in the natural sample. The MS/MS study of the isomerically pure polyamine derivatives revealed furthermore a characteristic pattern for the fragmentation of these compounds, which can possibly be used as evidence in the trace analysis of other polyamine derivatives.
