[PMID: 37278542 PMCID: PMC10947466 DOI: 10.1002/chem.202300922] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2023] [Revised: 06/01/2023] [Accepted: 06/02/2023] [Indexed: 06/07/2023]
Abstract
A photoredox-mediated radical amidation ring-expansion sequence that enables the generation of all-carbon quaternary centers bearing a protected aminomethyl substituent is described. The methodology can be applied to both styrene and unactivated alkene substrates generating structurally diverse sp3 -rich amine derivatives in a concise manner.

Abstract
Asymmetric total synthesis of cyclotetradepsipeptide beauveamide A has been achieved for the first time. A macrolactamization strategy involving two possible sites has been explored to find the most effective route for cyclization. A late-stage functionalization approach has been adopted for easy access of non-natural analogues of beauveamide A for further biological evaluation. Interestingly, the anticancer activity of one of the synthesized analogues was better than that of the parent natural product.

Abstract
An expeditious construction of an unsymmetrical tertiary 9-fluorenol skeleton was accomplished starting from readily available α-ketoester and aryl iodide. Inexpensive commercially available substituted aniline was utilized as a potent monodentate transient directing group (TDG) to assist palladium-catalyzed direct ortho-C-H arylation and tandem dual C-H activation of α-ketoesters to form two carbon-carbon bonds. To demonstrate practical applications, the reaction was enlarged to the gram scale, and subsequent one-step derivatization allowed facile access to structurally diversified useful derivatives. A series of control experiments were carried out to shed light on the possible catalytic mechanism.
