A short synthetic sequence for the preparation of merosesquiterpenes with a benzoxanthene skeleton starting from (−)-sclareol is reported. The D ring of the target compound is obtained through a Diels–Alder cycloaddition.

A series of 21 bridged, vicinal, exocyclic dimethylene hydrocarbons (1–21) have been converted to the related benzopolycyclic dimethyl esters (C1–C21) by oxidation of their respective dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate Diels–Alder adducts (B1–B21).This synthetic sequence represents an excellent, general route to aromatic ring-substituted benzopolycyclic hydrocarbons.

Thujone, a waste by-product of the Canadian forest industry, has been utilized as a starting material to develop a versatile synthetic route to the damascones (rose oil ketones) and related analogues. The synthetic sequence provides a route to β-cyclocitral (45), the latter having been previously converted to β-damascone (2). In addition, thujone-derived intermediates are converted to β-damascenone (48) and to intermediates that can be utilized for the preparation of damascone analogues. In conjunction with the above, an efficient route to safronitrile (42), β-cyclogeranonitrile (43), and β-cyclocitral (45) from 2,6-dimethylcyclohexanone has been developed. In summary, these studies afford an attractive versatile route to these important perfumery materials.

An uncomplicated, high-yielding synthetic route has been developed to constitute complicated heterocycles, applying domino, click and retro-Diels–Alder (RDA) reaction sequences. Starting from 2-aminocarboxamides, a new set of isoindolo[2,1-a]quinazolinones was synthesized with domino ring closure. A click reaction was performed to create the 1,2,3-triazole heterocyclic ring, followed by an RDA reaction resulting in dihydropyrimido[2,1-a]isoindole-2,6-diones. The absolute configuration, concluded by the norbornene structure that served as a chiral source, remained constant throughout the transformations. The structure of the synthesized compounds was examined by 1H and 13C Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) methods.

A practical synthetic route to pimavanserin tartrate, in which the target compound was obtained with 99.84% purity and in 46% total yield via a 5-step synthesis starting from 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde and (4-fluorophenyl)methanamine, is reported. The main advantages of the route include inexpensive starting materials, mild reaction conditions and an acceptable overall yield.

Synthetic approaches towards N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) have been attracting considerable interest since this compound is known for its pivotal role in cell–cell interaction and receptor induced cell signaling. Herein, we present a synthetic route in which two of the four stereogenic centers present in the target compound are derived from enantiopure tartaric acid being selectively converted to epoxy alcohols. The key step is the Pd-catalyzed, stereo- and regioselective epoxide opening and subsequent nucleophilic substitution of an azide functionality. This approach enables the synthesis of the naturally D- and unnaturally L-configured GalNAc, as well as both enantiomers of the largely unknown N-acetylidosamine (IdoNAc).

An improved synthetic route to α(1→3)/α(1→2)-linked mannooligosaccharides has been developed and applied to a more efficient preparation of the potent anti-angiogenic sulfated pentasaccharide, benzyl Manα(1→3)-Manα(1→3)-Manα(1→3)-Manα(1→2)-Man hexadecasulfate, using only two monosaccharide building blocks. Of particular note are improvements in the preparation of both building blocks and a simpler, final deprotection strategy. The route also provides common intermediates for the introduction of aglycones other than benzyl, either at the building block stage or after oligosaccharide assembly. The anti-angiogenic activity of the synthesized target compound was confirmed via the rat aortic assay.
