Catalytic asymmetric synthesis of the alkaloid (+)-myrtine [PDF]
A new protocol for the asymmetric synthesis of trans-2,6-disubstituted-4-piperidones has been developed using a catalytic enantioselective conjugate addition reaction in combination with a diastereoselective lithiation–substitution sequence; an efficient

Enantioselective Total Synthesis of Aplyviolene [PDF]
The enantioselective total synthesis of the rearranged spongian diterpene aplyviolene has been completed in 14 steps from the known hydroazulenone 8. The key junction of the hydrocarbon and oxygenated fragments to form the critical C8 quaternary carbon stereocenter and set the stage for elaborating the delicate bicyclic lactone functionality was ...

Enantioselective Synthesis of Endohedral Metallofullerenes
Endohedral metallofullerenes are promising materials in biomedical and material sciences. In particular, they are of interest as agents for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), photovoltaic devices, and semimetallic components. The synthesis of chiral endofullerenes represents one step further in the potential use of these carbon allotropes; however, this

Synthetic Studies Directed Toward Streptenol D: Enantioselective Preparation of the 3,5-diacetoxy-6\u3cem\u3eE\u3c/em\u3e,8\u3cem\u3eE\u3c/em\u3e-decadiene Segment [PDF]
The enantioselective preparation of 2-(3′R,5′R-diacetoxy-6E,8E-decadienyl)-1,3-dioxane, (+)-13, is described. This synthesis of the skeleton of streptenol D utilizes the ability of a diene-complexed (tricarbonyl)iron unit to serve as a protecting and ...

Photochemical Approaches to Complex Chemotypes: Applications in Natural Product Synthesis. [PDF]
The use of photochemical transformations is a powerful strategy that allows for the formation of a high degree of molecular complexity from relatively simple building blocks in a single step. A central feature of all light-promoted transformations is the

We analyze limited enantioselective (LES) autocatalysis in a temperature gradient and with internal flow/recycling of hot and cold material. Microreversibility forbids broken mirror symmetry for LES in the presence of a temperature gradient alone.

Enantioselective Total Synthesis of (+)-Amabiline [PDF]
The first total synthesis of (+)-amabiline, an unsaturated pyrrolizidine alkaloid from Cynoglossum amabile, is reported. This convergent, enantioselective synthesis proceeds in 15 steps (10-step longest linear sequence) in 6.2% overall yield and features novel methodology to construct the unsaturated pyrrolizidine or (-)-supinidine core.
