Abstract
The first systematic exploration of the synthesis and reactivity of naphthoquinonynes is described. Routes to two regioisomeric Kobayashi-type naphthoquinonyne precursors have been developed, and the reactivity of the ensuing 6,7- and 5,6-aryne intermediates has been investigated. Remarkably, these studies have revealed that a broad range of cycloadditions, nucleophile additions and difunctionalizations can be achieved while maintaining the integrity of the highly sensitive quinone unit. The methodologies offer a powerful diversity oriented approach to C6 and C7 functionalized naphthoquinones, which are typically challenging to access. From a reactivity viewpoint, the study is significant because it demonstrates that aryne-based functionalizations can be utilized strategically in the presence of highly reactive and directly competing functionality.

Abstract
A general and concise synthetic pathway for the preparation of four different 5,8'-coupled naphthylisoquinoline alkaloids, employing a specially developed nickel/N,N-ligand-catalyzed atroposelective Negishi coupling is reported. In the first reported direct atroposelective coupling of the fully substituted precursors, the naturally occurring cross-coupled products were generally obtained directly in reasonable yields and high enantiomeric purities. For the synthesis of the cross-coupling precursors, we employed a modification of Bringmann's known approach to the dihydroisoquinoline compounds and a newly developed route for the naphthalene building blocks. For the latter 1,8-dioxynaphthalene precursors, our strategy utilized Hartwig's borylation/methylation approach and included the efficient installation of orthogonal protecting groups.

Abstract
The first stereoselective total synthesis of the dimeric naphthoquinonopyrano-γ-lactone (-)-crisamicin A was realized (13 steps, 5% overall yield). 1,4,5-Trimethoxynaphthalene, reached in five known steps, was brominated at C-3 to install a but-3-enoic ester by an ensuing Heck coupling. An asymmetric Sharpless dihydroxylation followed and gave a β-hydroxy-γ-lactone with >99.9% ee. Its OH substituent and acetaldehyde established the dihydropyran ring in a completely diastereoselective oxa-Pictet-Spengler cyclization. The 2,3-fused anisole moiety allowed the C5-H bond under Hartwig's conditions to be borylated. This set the stage for engaging the resulting C5-B bond in an oxidative dimerization, which led to a binaphthohydroquinon-5-yl. The latter was advanced to synthetic crisamicin A by a double CAN oxidation (→ a binaphthoquinon-5-yl) and a double demethylation.
