Abstract
A bioinspired total synthesis of 3-epi-junipercedrol, which contains a strained tricyclo[5.2.2.03,7]undecane allo-cedrane framework and five stereocenters, was accomplished via an effective anionic semipinacol rearrangement of a tricyclic cedrane mesylate. The corresponding cedrane precursor was synthesized efficiently by employing the reductive oxy-Nazarov cyclization and an intramolecular aldol condensation as the key steps. This synthetic approach provided a further evidence for the biogenetic relationship between the typical cedrane and allo-cedrane sesquiterpenoids.

Abstract
Covering: 2011 to 2022The natural world is a prolific source of some of the most interesting, rare, and complex molecules known, harnessing sophisticated biosynthetic machinery evolved over billions of years for their production. Many of these natural products represent high-value targets of total synthesis, either for their desirable biological activities or for their beautiful structures outright; yet, the high sp3-character often present in nature's molecules imparts significant topological complexity that pushes the limits of contemporary synthetic technology. Dearomatization is a foundational strategy for generating such intricacy from simple materials that has undergone considerable maturation in recent years. This review highlights the recent achievements in the field of dearomative methodology, with a focus on natural product total synthesis and retrosynthetic analysis. Disconnection guidelines and a three-phase dearomative logic are described, and a spotlight is given to nature's use of dearomatization in the biosynthesis of various classes of natural products. Synthetic studies from 2011 to 2021 are reviewed, and 425 references are cited.

Abstract
Here we report the total synthesis of clovan-2,9-dione via Rh-catalyzed [3 + 2 + 1] cycloaddition/hydroformylation/aldol reaction. The [3 + 2 + 1] reaction of 1-yne-vinylcyclopropane and CO was used for the generation of a 5/6 bicyclic skeleton with a bridgehead vinyl group. The hydroformylation reaction converted the congested olefin of the [3 + 2 + 1] cycloadduct to a one-carbon elongated aldehyde, which underwent in situ aldol reaction, with the carbonyl group in the [3 + 2 + 1] cycloadduct, to generate the tricyclic bridged-ring skeleton of the target molecule.

Abstract
We describe the effective rhodium(I)-catalyzed [2+2+1] carbonylative cycloaddition of diynes, yielding cyclopentadienes (CPDs), under photoirradiation. The catalysis involves the promotion of the photodissociation of the product CPD, with the simultaneous production of an essential vacant coordination site on the rhodium for an unreacted substrate. The combined use of cationic [Rh(cod)2]BF4 as a catalyst and photoirradiation was also found to give various CPDs in high yields (≤96%).

Abstract
Metal-mediated cyclizations are important transformations in a natural product total synthesis. The Pauson-Khand reaction, particularly powerful for establishing cyclopentenone-containing structures, is distinguished as one of the most attractive annulation processes routinely employed in synthesis campaigns. This review covers Co, Rh, and Pd catalyzed Pauson-Khand reaction and summarizes its strategic applications in total syntheses of structurally complex natural products in the last five years. Additionally, the hetero-Pauson-Khand reaction in the synthesis of heterocycles will also be discussed. Focusing on the panorama of organic synthesis, this review highlights the strategically developed Pauson-Khand reaction in fulfilling total synthetic tasks and its synthetic attractiveness is aimed to be illustrated.

Abstract
Gracilamine belongs to the Amaryllidaceae alkaloid group and has a unique five-ring skeleton. Its scarcity in plants limits biological studies on it. A number of synthetic chemists have carried out the total synthesis of gracilamine in the past few years. This review will summarize the synthetic studies of gracilamine, and hopes to bring new inspiration to the research of Amaryllidaceae alkaloids.

Abstract
Alkaloids from the Amaryllidaceae have become valuable targets for synthetic organic chemists, mainly due to their wide variety of bioactivities and potential for utilization in medicinal chemistry ventures. In addition, the structural complexity of a number of these alkaloids has also been a reason for the interest in these compounds. In this review, the last 18 months of literature was perused and synthetic highlights have been presented here, with the hope to further focus attention on this interesting class of compounds and to encourage others to synthesize these compounds and their derivatives and/or analogues. The review contains examples of syntheses from most of the important alkaloid scaffold classes previously isolated from the Amaryllidaceae, namely: lycorine, crinine, galanthamine, tazettine, montanine, phenanthridone, phenanthridine, plicamine, mesembrine and some minor scaffolds (like gracilamine).

Abstract
The development of a catalytic intramolecular "cut-and-sew" transformation between cyclobutanones and alkynes to construct cyclohexenone-fused rings is described herein. The challenge arises from the need for selective coupling at the more sterically hindered proximal position, and can be addressed by using an electron-rich, but less bulky, phosphine ligand. The control experiment and 13 C-labelling study suggest that the reaction may start with cleavage of the less hindered distal C-C bond of cyclobutanones, followed by decarbonylation and CO reinsertion to enable Rh insertion at the more hindered proximal position.

Abstract
Vinyl cyclopropanes are amongst the most useful building blocks in organic synthesis. Their easy opening and capacity to generate dipoles have been exploited for the synthesis of cyclopentanes with good yields and sometimes excellent stereoselectivities. In this review we give an overview of their applications, focusing on the present century.

Abstract
The enantioselective total synthesis of (+)-gracilamine (1) is described. The strategy features a diastereoselective phenolic coupling reaction followed by a regioselective intramolecular aza-Michael reaction to construct the ABCE ring system. The configuration at C3a in 1 was controlled by the stereocenter at C9a, which was selectively generated (91 % ee) by an organocatalytic enantioselective aza-Friedel-Crafts reaction developed by our research group. This synthesis revealed that the absolute configuration of (+)-gracilamine is 3aR, 4S, 5S, 6R, 7aS, 8R, 9aS.

Abstract
(+)-Gracilamine, a biologically attractive and structurally unique pentacyclic Amaryllidaceae alkaloid, was biomimetically synthesized in 11 linear steps in 9.9% overall yield from the known racemic oxocrinine. The synthesis features an asymmetric hydrogenation, a ring-opening/benzylic oxidation/cyclization sequence, and a biomimetic intramolecular cycloaddition. This total synthesis not only allows the assignment of its absolute configuration, but also provides experimental support for the hypothesis that naturally occurring (+)-gracilamine is biogenetically derived from the crinine-type alkaloid (+)-epivittatine.

Abstract
The transition metal-catalyzed "cut and sew" transformation has recently emerged as a useful strategy for preparing complex molecular structures. After oxidative addition of a transition metal into a carbon-carbon bond, the resulting two carbon termini can be both functionalized in one step via the following migratory insertion and reductive elimination with unsaturated units, such as alkenes, alkynes, allenes, CO and polar multiple bonds. Three- or four-membered rings are often employed as reaction partners due to their high ring strains. The participation of non-strained structures generally relies on cleavage of a polar carbon-CN bond or assistance of a directing group.
