Abstract
A novel and flexible approach for the stereo-controlled synthesis of vicinal tertiary carbinols is reported. The developed strategy featured a highly diastereoselective singlet-oxygen (O2 1 ) [4+2] cycloaddition of rationally designed cyclohexadienones (derived from oxidative dearomatization of the corresponding carboxylic-acid appended phenol precursors), followed by programmed "O-O" and "C-C" bond cleavage. In doing so, a highly functionalized and versatile intermediate was identified and prepared in synthetically useful quantity as a plausible precursor to access a variety of designed and naturally occurring vicinal tertiary carbinol containing compounds. Most notably, the developed strategy was successfully applied in the stereo-controlled synthesis of advanced core structures of zaragozic acid, pactamycin and ryanodol.

Abstract
Leucosceptroids are sesterterpenoids with potent antifeedant and antifungal activities. In this paper, efforts on two synthetic strategies toward stereoselective total synthesis of the leucosceptroid family of natural products are reported. Intramolecular addition cyclization strategy could lead to a stereochemically mismatched core structure, while intermolecular addition/ring-closing metathesis cyclization strategy successfully furnished an advanced common intermediate bearing eight contiguous stereogenic centers, including three tetra-substituted ones, which fully matches all the stereochemistry on the tricyclic framework in leucosceptroid H. Late-stage transformation of this intermediate to leucosceptroid H encountered difficulty in oxidizing the secondary hydroxyl group to a carbonyl group in the target. Instead of the desired oxidation, an interesting tricyclic spiral product originating from a C-C bond cleavage was observed.
