Our recent progress toward the synthesis of the furanocembranolide lophotoxin (1) is disclosed. Strategies for the stereoselective incorporation of the C13 stereocenter by a catalytic desymmetrization of a cyclic meso-anhydride, as well as a novel 1,6-addition reaction of organocuprates to unsaturated [1,3]dioxin-4-ones are discussed. Preliminary results on the development of a rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric 1,6-addition reaction are also mentioned. Finally, modifications of a previously reported transition-metal-catalyzed cyclization reaction involving α-propargyl β-keto esters allow furan ring formation either under thermal conditions or by microwave irradiation.Key words: 1,6-addition, organocuprates, catalytic desymmetrization, furan cyclization, microwave.

Recent development in the transition metal-catalyzed cyclization reactions for organic syntheses in the author's laboratories is summarized, which includes (i) novel silylcarbocyclizations (SiCaCs) and carbonylative carbotricyclizations, (ii) intramolecular silylformylations and desymmerization of siloxydiynes by sequential double silylformylation, (iii) efficient total synthesis of (+)-prosopinine, (iv) enantioselective desymmetrization of aminodienes, and (iv) new and efficient routes to 1-azabicyclo[x.y.0]alkane amino acids. All these processes are catalyzed by Rh or Rh­Co complexes, and useful for rapid and efficient construction of a variety of heterocyclic and carbocyclic compounds. Mechanisms of these new carbocyclization and cyclohydrocarbonylation reactions are also discussed.

The plethora of transformations attainable by the transition-metal-catalyzed reactions of arynes has found immense contemporary interest in the scientific community. This review highlights the scope and importance of transition-metal-catalyzed aryne reactions in the field of synthetic organic chemistry reported to date. It covers transformations achieved by the combination of arynes and various transition metals, which provide a facile access to a biaryl motif, fused polycyclic aromatic compounds, different novel carbocycles, various heterocycles, and complex natural products.1 Introduction2 Insertion of Arynes3 Annulation of Arynes4 Cycloaddition of Arynes5 Multicomponent Reactions of Arynes6 Miscellaneous Reactions of Arynes7 Total Synthesis of Natural Products Using Arynes8 Conclusion
