This account relates our work in the field of modified Julia olefination to extend this very useful olefination method to carboxylic acid derivatives. Since our preliminary results on lactones in 2005, the reaction has been extended to a large range of derivatives (lactams, imides and anhydrides) through an intra- or intermolecular process leading to a great variety of structures (enol ethers, enamides and exo enol esters). This article will also focus on the application of this methodology for the preparation of biologically interesting compounds and/or total syntheses of natural products such as C-disaccharide, bistramide A, jaspine B and maculalactone B.1 Introduction2 Modified Julia Olefination on Lactones2.1 Methylene Enol Ether Synthesis2.2 Substituted Enol Ether Synthesis2.3 Monofluorinated Enol Ether Synthesis2.4 Difluorinated Enol Ether Synthesis3 Applications3.1 Spiroketal Synthesis3.2 Spirocompound Synthesis3.3 Pseudodisaccharide Synthesis3.4 Total Synthesis of Jaspine B4 Modified Julia Olefination on Other Carboxylic Acid Derivatives4.1 Lactam Olefination and Spiroaminal Synthesis4.2 Bicyclic Enamide Synthesis by Intramolecular Modified Julia Olefination on Imides4.3 Modified Julia Olefination on Anhydrides5 Conclusion

The biological activities of shancigusin C (1) and bletistrin G (2), natural products isolated from orchids, are reported along with their first total syntheses. The total synthesis of shancigusin C (1) was conducted by employing the Perkin reaction to forge the central stilbene core, whereas the synthesis of bletistrin G (2) was achieved by the Wittig olefination followed by several regioselective aromatic substitution reactions. Both syntheses were completed by applying only renewable starting materials according to the principles of xylochemistry. The cytotoxic properties of shancigusin C (1) and bletistrin G (2) against tumor cells suggest suitability as a starting point for further structural variation.

Stereoselective total synthesis of (±)-sinularene and (±)-5-epi-sinularene are described. The sequence employs a "blocked" cyclopentadiene in which the cyclopropane unit also serves as a latent methyl group. Thus intramolecular [4 + 2] cycloaddition of the substituted methyl spiro[2.4]hepta-4,6-dien-1-yl)-2-pentenoate 11 affords 5-benzyloxy-6-isopropyl-8-carbomethoxytetracyclo[5.4.01,7.02,4.02,9]undec-10-ene (12) which after selective hydrogenolysis generates the tricyclo[4.4.01,6.02,8]decane (sinularene) ring system. Removal of the secondary hydroxyl function (Ph3P/CCl4/CH3CN; H2/Pd/C), reduction of the methyl ester (LiAlH4), and introduction of the exocyclic double bond (acetate pyrolysis, 550 °C) completes the synthesis of (±)-sinularene in 14 steps from cyclopentadiene. A parallel series of reactions employing the isopropyl epimer of 12 affords (±)-5-epi-sinularene.

AbstractStarting from methyl cycloheptatrienyl-1-carboxylate, 6-acylation was successfully achieved employing glutaryl chloride in the presence of AlCl3 under controlled reaction conditions to furnish keto carboxylic acid product. After protection of this keto carboxylic acid as tert-butyl ester, reagent-controlled enantioselective reductions delivered configuration-defined methyl-6-hydroxylalkyl cycloheptatriene-1-carboxylates with up to 80% ee. Whereas simple NaBH4 reduction of the keto carboxylic acid and subsequent lactonization afforded a methyl-6-tetrahydropyranonyl cycloheptatriene-1-carboxylate. Resolution using chiral HPLC delivered the product enantiomers with up to >99% ee Finally, ECD analyses enabled structure elucidation. The products are used as key intermediates in enantioselective 6,11-methylene-lipoxin B4 syntheses.

Clavaminols are a new class of long-chain 2-amino-3-­alkanols that mostly contain 2R,3S-configurations. Owing to their interesting molecular architectures and promising activities, they have ­become popular targets for synthetic organic chemists. In this review, we highlight 12 total syntheses of clavaminols from different research groups during the period 2009 to 2018.1 Introduction2 Synthetic Approaches toward Clavaminols2.1 Total Synthesis by Chemla and Colleagues (2009)2.2 Total Synthesis by Greck and Colleagues (2010)2.3 Total Synthesis by Sutherland and Zaed (2011)2.4 Total Synthesis by Huang and Colleagues (2011)2.5 Total Synthesis by Kotora and Colleagues (2012)2.6 Total Synthesis by Kumar and Colleagues (2013)2.7 Total Synthesis by Prabhavathi Devi and Colleagues (2013 and 2016)2.8 Total Synthesis by Sarabia and Colleagues (2014)2.9 Total Synthesis by Mohapatra and Colleagues (2016)2.10 Total Synthesis by Lu and Colleagues (2016)2.11 Total Synthesis by Jin and Colleagues (2017)2.12 Total Synthesis by Kumar Pandey and Colleagues (2018)3 Conclusion
