The elaboration of the ring A aldehydes 1, 7, and 11 into more highly functionalized intermediates for taxoid synthesis is described. An improved route to the triene 4 and the adduct 28b is reported. Additional condensations of selected aldehydes (1,7) with the organolithium reagents derived from the substituted halodienes 8 and 14 afforded the allylic alcohols 10 and 15 with a diastereoselectivity of ~5:1. Further manipulation of these products by the installation of an α-keto-acetylenic dienophile provided a taxoid precursor with the C2, C9, C10, C13, and C20 oxygens installed in the case of 23 (from 7), and the less functionalized systems 27 and 27a (from 1). Keywords: taxoid, paclitaxel, Diels–Alder, cyclohexene, dienes.

gem-Difluoro-1,7-enyne amides are suitable building blocks for the synthesis of difluorodihydropyridinones via a ring-closing metathesis reaction, and of 4,4-difluoro-3-oxoisoquinolines through a ring-closing metathesis–enyne metathesis tandem reaction. These products, in turn, undergo a Diels–Alder reaction to yield heterotricyclic systems in moderate to good yields.

By combining an iron-catalyzed borrowing hydrogen of allylic alcohols with an enantioselective organocatalyzed Michael addition of β-keto esters followed by a subsequent DBU-promoted lactonization different enantioenriched δ-lactones have been synthesized with good enantioselectivities. The valuable building blocks, featuring in some cases challenging quaternary stereocenters, have been obtained with >90% ee.
