, p. 8208 - 8219 (2007/10/03)
Studies aimed at preparing (±)-strychnofoline by total synthesis are detailed. The route described makes use of a recently developed MgI 2-mediated ring-expansion reaction of spiro[cyclopropan-1,3′- oxindole] with a cyclic disubstituted aldimin

A sulfur HASC (α-hetero-atom substituted carbonyl) linker has been utilized in solid-phase approaches to oxindoles and tetrahydroquinolones. The route to oxindoles employs the first Pummerer cyclizations on solid phase, whereas the route to tetrahydroquinolones involves a microwave-assisted Heck reaction followed by a Michael cyclization. In both cases, the linker is cleaved in a traceless fashion by electron transfer from samarium(II) iodide. The routes illustrate the compatibility of the linker system with a number of reaction types and its utility for library synthesis.
The first Pummerer cyclisations on solid phase. Convenient construction of oxindoles enabled by a sulfur-link to resin

α-Sulfanyl N-aryl acetamides, attached to resin via the sulfur atom, undergo efficient Pummerer cyclisation upon activation of the sulfur link, to give oxindoles; heterocyclic products can be cleaved from the resin in a traceless manner using samarium(II) iodide.
First total synthesis of (±)-strychnofoline via a highly selective ring-expansion reaction

, p. 14826 - 14827 (2007/10/03)
An efficient synthesis of the antitumor alkaloid (±)-strychnofoline is documented. Key to the development of the highly convergent strategy delineated is the coupling of a cyclic imine with spiro[cyclopropan-1,3'-oxindole], which takes place in a highly d
