This paper describes our efforts to design a Pd-catalyzed asymmetric prenylation of 3-substituted oxindoles that affords access to both the linear and reverse-prenylated products. Both 3-alkyl- and 3-aryloxindoles performed well under our optimized reaction conditions. The regiodivergent alkylation of monoterpene-derived electrophiles using this methodology was also investigated. The utility of this methodology in natural product synthesis was demonstrated through the efficient total syntheses of four Flustra alkaloids, which also allowed the absolute stereochemistry of the prenylated oxindole products to be assigned. Surprisingly, the same enantiomer of ligand produced linear and branched regioisomers of opposite chirality.

Pd-catalyzed asymmetric prenylation of oxindoles to afford selectively either the prenyl or reverse-prenyl product has been demonstrated. Control of the regioselectivity in this transformation is governed by the choice of ligand, solvent, and halide additive. The resulting prenylated and reverse-prenylated products were transformed into ent-flustramides and ent-flustramines A and B. Additionally, control of the regio-and diastereoselectivity was obtained using π-geranylpalladium complexes.

Total synthesis of (-)-flustramine B was achieved via one-pot intramolecular Ullmann coupling and Claisen rearrangement. A striking feature of this method of synthesis is that the sequential intramolecular Ullmann coupling and Claisen rearrangement reactions proceeds with concomitant deprotection of the methoxymethyl (MOM) group to afford spirocyclic oxindole with perfect asymmetric transmission in good overall yield.

The concise total synthesis of marine alkaloids, (-)-flustramines A and B, and (-)-flustramides A and B has been achieved through the domino olefination/isomerization/Claisen rearrangement (OIC) for highly enantioselective construction of the asymmetric quaternary carbon center and the chemoselective reduction-cyclization (RC) for pyrrolidine formation as key steps.

A general, efficient, and conceptually new approach to the total syntheses of marine-derived indole alkaloids, including (±)-flustramines A (1) and B (2), (±)-flustramides A (3) and B (4), and (±)-debromoflustramine B (5), is outlined. The key step in the syntheses involves the conjugated addition of an organomagnesium species derived from prenyl bromide to 2-hydroxyindolenines. Compounds 1, 2, and 5 have been synthesized in five steps with 23%, 17%, and 16% overall yield, respectively, whereas flustramides 3 and 4 have been synthesized in only four steps with 24% and 18% overall yield, respectively, on the basis of 2-hydroxyindolenines.
