Abstract
The total synthesis of 1,4a-di-epi-ent-pancratistatin, a novel stereoisomer of the anti-tumor Amaryllidaceae alkaloid pancratistatin, was achieved in 14 steps starting from D-mannitol. The construction of the pancratistatin skeleton involved conjugate addition of organocuprate to a nitrosoolefin, which was generated in situ from inosose oxime. This was followed by stereoselective reduction of the oxime to an amine and site-selective formylation. Biological evaluations revealed that the newly synthesized compounds exhibit cytotoxicity toward cancer cells and significant ferroptosis inhibitory activity. These compounds constitute a promising small-molecule library for the development of potent bioactive agents.

Abstract
As a preeminent anticancer natural product, (+)-pancratistatin has always been a privileged synthetic target. Herein, the total synthesis of (+)-pancratistatin is reported in 10 linear steps by utilizing a known aldehyde as chiral source. This synthetic route features a highly stereoselective intermolecular Michael addition and intramolecular Henry reaction to construct a cyclohexane ring bearing 6 successive stereocenters. Moreover, all of the synthetic steps are reliable and efficient and can be easily scaled up, which facilitated anticancer pharmacological tests of (+)-pancratistatin. Importantly, a new pharmacological mechanism of action was discovered for the first time where (+)-pancratistatin is able to inhibit the activity of topoisomerase I, which would pave the way for the development of new-type Topo I inhibitors.

Abstract
A chemoenzymatic convergent synthesis of 10-benzyloxy narciclasine from bromobenzene was accomplished in 16 steps. The key transformations included toluene dioxygenase-mediated hydroxylation, nitroso Diels-Alder reaction and intramolecular Heck cyclization. The unnatural derivative of narciclasine was subjected to biological evaluation and its activity was compared to other C-10 and C-7 compounds prepared previously.

Abstract
A reasonable synthesis design by strategically integrating functional group manipulation into the ring system construction resulted in a short, enantioselective, gram-scale total synthesis of (−)-zephyranthine. The concise route includes a catalytic Michael/Michael cascade for the asymmetric synthesis of a penta-substituted cyclohexane with three contiguous stereogenic centers, a remarkable 8-step one-pot operation to easily assemble the zephyranthine tetracyclic skeleton, the regioselective construction of a double bond in the C ring and an asymmetric dihydroxylation. This synthesis is also flexible and paves a potential path to a variety of cyclohexylamine-fused tricyclic or polycyclic alkaloids. A reasonable synthesis design by strategically integrating functional group manipulation into the ring system construction resulted in a short, enantioselective, gram-scale total synthesis of (−)-zephyranthine.![]()

Abstract
A ruthenium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation method for the synthesis of functionalized β-aryl cyclohexanols is described. With chiral spiro ruthenium catalyst (Ra,S,S)-5c, a series of racemic α-aryl cyclohexanones bearing a β-monoethylene ketal group were hydrogenated to the corresponding functionalized β-aryl cyclohexanols in high yields with enantioselectivity of up to 99% ee via a dynamic kinetic resolution. This protocol can be conducted on a decagram scale and provide potential approaches for the synthesis of optically active and densely functionalized aryl cyclohexanols.

Abstract
Enantioselective total syntheses of the anticancer isocarbostyril alkaloids (+)-7-deoxypancratistatin, (+)-pancratistatin, (+)-lycoricidine, and (+)-narciclasine are described. Our strategy for accessing this unique class of natural products is based on the development of a Ni-catalyzed dearomative trans-1,2-carboamination of benzene. The effectiveness of this dearomatization approach is notable, as only two additional olefin functionalizations are needed to construct the fully decorated aminocyclitol cores of these alkaloids. Installation of the lactam ring has been achieved through several pathways and a direct interconversion between natural products was established via a late-stage C-7 cupration. Using this synthetic blueprint, we were able to produce natural products on a gram scale and provide tailored analogs with improved activity, solubility, and metabolic stability.

Abstract
A concise synthesis of (+)-pancratistatin and (+)-7-deoxypancratistatin from benzene using an enantioselective, dearomative carboamination strategy has been achieved. This approach, in combination with the judicious choice of subsequent olefin-type difunctionalization reactions, permits rapid and controlled access to a hexasubstituted core. Finally, minimal use of intermediary steps as well as direct, late stage C-7 hydroxylation provides both natural products in six and seven operations.
