Lithiation then electrophilic quench of tetrahydroisoquinolines provides access to 1-substituted products. Removal of the N-Boc group allows rapid access to natural products such as (±)-crispine A.

The recognition of the local symmetric image within benzofuran-based natural oligostilbenoids guided us to design a modular synthetic approach to these molecules by utilizing a three-step sequence consisting of Sonogashira coupling, iodocyclization, and Suzuki coupling. During our synthesis, the relative reactivities of ester, aldehyde, and alkoxy groups on the same aryl ring toward the neighboring alkyne in the iodine-mediated cyclization reactions were explored. Starting from the symmetrical 3,5-dimethoxybenzyl alcohol, this route allowed rapid access to 2,3-diarylbenzofuran, a key intermediate to several oligostilbenoid natural products, in good overall yields.

The protecting-group-free (PGF) and free-radical-based synthesis of two structurally different natural products, (–)-boschnialactone and γ-lycorane, is reported. The key step in both syntheses is a radical–ionic sequence for construction of the principal structure (a six-membered lactone and a 1,4-dicarbonyl compound, respectively), allowing short and rapid access to these natural products through a PGF route.

2-Substituted indoles may be directly transformed to 3,3-dialkyl indolenines with trichloroacetimidate electrophiles and the Lewis acid TMSOTf. These reactions provide rapid access to complex indolenines which are present in a variety of complex natural products and medicinally relevant small molecule structures. This method provides an alternative to the use of transition metal catalysis. The indolenines are readily transformed into spiroindoline systems which are privileged scaffolds in medicinal chemistry.

Tricarbonylchromium-mediated dearomatization provides a rapid access to substituted cyclohexadienes. Efficient asymmetric routes to planar chiral arene complexes and to substituted cyclohexadienes have been developed. The article sums up the main features of this chemistry. Highly enantiomerically enriched ortho-substituted benzaldehyde complexes are accessible via asymmetric lithiation followed by trapping with electrophiles. In different solvents, the trimethylsilyl complex exhibits [alpha] values ranging from −174 to +108 for the same enantiomer. Details of two asymmetric syntheses of natural products are given: the alkaloid lasubine I starting from a highly enantiomerically enriched planar chiral arene complex and the marine furanosesquiterpene acetoxytubipofuran. The latter is assembled via asymmetric dearomatization of a benzaldehyde imine complex. Other key steps include an Eschenmoser–Claisen rearrangement and a regio- and diastereoselective Pd-catalyzed allylic substitution. The final section deals with labile arene metal complexes. For the first time, dearomatization reactions mediated by the Mo(CO)3 group have been realized. The reactions show strong analogies to the Cr(CO)3-mediated reactions, but exhibit also marked differences: the arene–Mo bond is stronger, but more labile, and the sequential double additions show different selectivities compared to the chromium analogs.
