alpha-Amidoalkylation via sulfones: Towards the synthesis of ant venom alkaloids
We described the synthesis of two 5-substituted gamma -lactams 1 and 11 by sulfone-based alpha -amidoalkylation method. This constitutes the formal synthesis of ant venom alkaloids 2 and 3 in racemic form. The key intermediate 18 for the chiral synthesis

Fight or Flight: Reactions of a Rainforest Ant to the Venom of a Natural Enemy
The well-studied Megalomyrmex ant parasites are known for their use of venom alkaloids to reduce aggression and confuse their fungus-growing ant hosts. However, most Megalomyrmex species are not restricted to a parasitic lifestyle. In fact, many are free-
