Abstract
Stereodefined vinylboron compounds are important organic synthons. The synthesis of E-1-vinylboron compounds typically involves the addition of a B-H bond to terminal alkynes. The selective generation of the thermodynamically unfavorable Z-isomers remains challenging, necessitating improved methods. Here, such a proficient and cost-effective catalytic system is introduced, comprising a cobalt salt and a readily accessible air-stable CNC pincer ligand. This system enables the transformation of terminal alkynes, even in the presence of bulky substituents, with excellent Z-selectivity. High turnover numbers (>1,600) and turnover frequencies (>132,000 h-1) are achieved at room temperature, and the reaction can be scaled up to 30 mmol smoothly. Kinetic studies reveal a formal second-order dependence on cobalt concentration. Mechanistic investigations indicate that the alkynes exhibit a higher affinity for the catalyst than the alkene products, resulting in exceptional Z-selective performance. Furthermore, a rare time-dependent stereoselectivity is observed, allowing for quantitative conversion of Z-vinylboronate esters to the E-isomers.

Abstract
New direct access to conjugated tetraenes has been achieved. A Ru(0)-catalysed reaction of 1,3-enynes with 1,3-dienes gives 1,3,5,7-octatetraene derivatives by formal regioselective insertion of the alkynyl group of 1,3-enynes into the terminal C-H bond in 1,3-dienes. With a silyl substituent on the alkynyl side in 1,3-enynes, the reaction regioselectively proceeds to give the linear cross-dimerisation product having the silyl group at the internal position. Stoichiometric and DFT calculations support the oxidative coupling mechanism for the linear cross-dimerisation. Methyl (2E,4E,6E,8E)-10-hydroxy-2,4,6,8-decatetraenoate, a versatile polyene intermediate, is accessed by this method as a formal synthesis of biologically active compounds.

Abstract
A straightforward, efficient, and selective method for the preparation of novel boryl-functionalized enynes or dienes via [Pt(PPh3)4]-catalyzed diboration of a broad spectrum of symmetrical and unsymmetrical 1,3-diynes was developed. The catalytic cycle of diboration was proposed on the basis of low-temperature 31P NMR studies. An alternative isolation method via product condensation on a cold finger was developed, which, in contrast to previous literature reports, eliminates the need for the additional transformation of rapidly decomposing enynyl pinacol boronates to more stable silica-based column chromatography derivatives during the separation step. To prove the efficiency of this simple catalytic protocol, bisboryl-functionalized enynes were synthesized in a gram scale and tested as useful building blocks in advanced organic transformations, such as hydrosilylation and Suzuki and sila-Sonogashira couplings. The presence of silyl, boryl, as well as other functions like halogen or alkoxy in their structures builds a new class of multifunctionalized enynes that might be modified in various chemical reactions.

Abstract
An enantioselective allylation of silyl-substituted acetylenic aldehydes by chiral phosphoric acid (CPA)/transition metal cooperative catalysis was developed. Enantioenriched homoallylic propargyl alcohols were obtained in good yields with excellent enantioselectivities (>99% ee) under mild conditions. Moreover, the shortest formal synthesis of fostriecin was achieved by the present enantioselective allylation protocol as the key step. The known intermediate of fostriecin reported by McDonald and co-worker was synthesized in only nine steps in 39% total yield.

Abstract
Two formal syntheses and one total synthesis of fostriecin (1) have been achieved, as well as, the synthesis of its related congener dihydro-dephospho-fostriecin. All the routes use the Sharpless dihydroxylation to set the absolute stereochemistry at C-8/9 positions and a Leighton allylation to set the C-5 position of the natural product. In the formal syntheses a Noyori transfer hydrogenation of an ynone was used to set the C-11 position while the total synthesis employed a combination of asymmetric dihydroxylation and Pd-π-allyl reduction to set the C-11 position. Finally in the total synthesis, a trans-hydroboration of the C-12/13 alkyne was used in combination with a Suzuki cross coupling to establish the Z,Z,E-triene of fostriecin (1).

Leustroducsin
B exhibits a large variety of biological activities
and unique structural features. An efficient and highly convergent
total synthesis of Leustroducsin B was achieved in 17 longest linear
and 39 total steps by disconnecting the molecule into three fragments
having similar levels of complexity. These pieces were connected via
a highly efficient chelate-controlled addition of a vinyl zincate
to an α-hydroxy ketone and a silicon-mediated cross-coupling.
The stereochemistry of the central and western fragments was set catalytically
in high yields and excellent de by a zinc-ProPhenol-catalyzed aldol
reaction and a palladium-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation.

Abstract
CONTEXT Polyketides are bioactive natural products with diverse bioactivities, and heterologous production of polyketides in easily engineered microbial hosts is preferred for the production of structurally diverse and the therapeutically active polyketides. OBJECTIVE In this study, heterologous expression of the biosynthetic genes encoding type I polyketide synthases (PKS) involved in biosynthesis of fostriecin, a unique phosphate monoester polyketide antibiotic, was attempted. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fostriecin PKS (Fos-PKS) biosynthetic gene cluster in a total of 48.4 kb were cloned downstream of the act I promoter in two compatible Streptomyces vectors using Red/ET recombination. The co-expression plasmids were sequentially transferred into Streptomyces lividans and Streptomyces coelicolor. Active transcription of the polyketide genes was confirmed by reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) analysis, and the metabolites were detected using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). RESULTS The recombinant strains S. lividans TK24/p6-fosAB-p4-fosCDEF and S. coelicolor M512/p6-fosAB-p4-fosCDEF were obtained for heterologous expression in Streptomyces. Pigmentation was observed in the recombinant strains, whereas the control strain with empty vector displayed no change in pigment production. Active transcription of the polyketide genes was confirmed by RT-PCR analysis and subsequent sequencing. CONCLUSION The present study is the first attempt to overexpress Fos-PKS biosynthetic gene cluster in Streptomyces. More studies on heterologous expression of the fostriecin biosynthetic gene cluster would be beneficial for further understanding the mechanisms of its structural as well as the potential pharmaceutically effect.

Abstract
A convergent diastereo- and enantioselective total synthesis of anticancer and antifungal macrocyclic natural product disorazole C1 is reported. The central feature of the successful route is the application of catalytic Z-selective cross-metathesis (CM). Specifically, we illustrate that catalyst-controlled stereoselective CM can be performed to afford structurally complex Z-alkenyl-B(pin) as well as Z-alkenyl iodide compounds reliably, efficiently, and with high selectivity (pin = pinacolato). The resulting intermediates are then joined in a single-step operation through catalytic inter- and intramolecular cross-coupling to furnish the desired 30-membered ring macrocycle containing the critical (Z,Z,E)-triene moieties.

Abstract
Cyclic alkenylsiloxanes were synthesized by semihydrogenation of alkynylsilanes-a reaction previously plagued by poor stereoselectivity. The silanes, which can be synthesized on multigram scale, undergo Hiyama-Denmark coupling to give (Z)-alkenyl polyene motifs found in bioactive natural products. The ring size of the silane is crucial: five-membered cyclic siloxanes also couple under fluoride-free conditions, whilst their six-membered homologues do not, enabling orthogonality within this structural motif.

Abstract
The first total syntheses and structural elucidation of cryptocaryol A and cryptocaryol B were achieved in 23 and 25 linear steps, respectively. The synthesis relied on the use of a key pseudo-Cs symmetric pentaol intermediate, which in a stereochemically divergent manner was converted into either enantiomer as well as diastereomers. This synthetic effort enabled the first structure-activity relationships of this class of PDCD4 stabilizing natural products.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Fostriecin is a natural product purified from Sterptomyces extracts with antitumor activity sufficient to warrant human clinical trials. Unfortunately, difficulties associated with supply and stable drug formulation stalled further development. At a molecular level, fostriecin is known to act as a catalytic inhibitor of four PPP-family phosphatases, and reports describing the design of molecules in this class suggest derivatives targeting enzymes within the fostriecin-sensitive subfamily can be successful. However, it is not clear if the tumor-selective cytotoxicity of fostriecin results from the inhibition of a specific phosphatase, multiple phosphatases, or a limited subset of fostriecin sensitive phosphatases. How the inhibition of sensitive phosphatases contributes to tumor-selective cytotoxicity is also not clear. Here, high-content time-lapse imaging of live cells revealed novel insight into the cellular actions of fostriecin, showing that fostriecin-induced apoptosis is not simply induced following a sustained mitotic arrest. Rather, apoptosis occurred in an apparent second interphase produced when tetraploid cells undergo mitotic slippage. Comparison of the actions of fostriecin and antisense-oligonucleotides specifically targeting human fostriecin-sensitive phosphatases revealed that the suppression PP4C alone is sufficient to mimic many actions of fostriecin. Importantly, targeted suppression of PP4C induced apoptosis, with death occurring in tetraploid cells following mitotic slippage. This effect was not observed following the suppression of PP1C, PP2AC, or PP5C. These data clarify PP4C as a fostriecin-sensitive phosphatase and demonstrate that the suppression of PP4C triggers mitotic slippage/apoptosis. IMPLICATIONS Future development of fostriecin class inhibitors should consider PP4C as a potentially important target. Mol Cancer Res; 11(8); 845-55. ©2013 AACR.

Abstract
The first examples of catalytic cross-metathesis (CM) reactions that furnish Z-(pinacolato)allylboron and Z-(pinacolato)alkenylboron compounds are disclosed. Products are generated with high Z selectivity by the use of a W-based monoaryloxide pyrrolide (MAP) complex (up to 91% yield and >98:2 Z:E). The more sterically demanding Z-alkenylboron species are obtained in the presence of Mo-based MAP complexes in up to 93% yield and 97% Z selectivity. Z-selective CM with 1,3-dienes and aryl olefins are reported for the first time. The utility of the approach, in combination with catalytic cross coupling, is demonstrated by a concise and stereoselective synthesis of anticancer agent combretastatin A-4.

Abstract
The first total synthesis of (-)-arabilin, a Streptomyces metabolite that inhibits hormone activation of the androgen receptor, has been completed. The key step, a [1,7]-hydrogen shift, establishes the enol ether-containing skipped-tetraene substructure. This nonenzymatic pericyclic reaction is considered to be biomimetic.

Abstract
For the last ten years our group has been working toward the development of an asymmetric hydration approach to polyketide natural products based on the regioselective hydration of di- and tri-enoates. Key to the success of this approach is the recognition that both high regiocontrol and asymmetric induction could be obtained by the use of a Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation reaction. Herein we describe the development of the method and its application to natural product total synthesis.

Abstract
The polar Felkin-Anh, Cornforth-Evans, and Cram-chelation models predict that the addition of organometallic reagents to silyl-protected α-hydroxy ketones proceeds via a nonchelation pathway to give anti-diol addition products. This prediction has held true for the vast majority of additions reported in the literature, and few methods for chelation-controlled additions of organometallic reagents to silyl-protected α-hydroxy ketones have been introduced. Herein, we present a general and highly diastereoselective method for the addition of dialkylzincs and (E)-di-, (E)-tri-, and (Z)-disubstituted vinylzinc reagents to α-silyloxy ketones using alkyl zinc halide Lewis acids, RZnX, to give chelation-controlled products (dr ≥18:1). The compatibility of organozinc reagents with other functional groups makes this method potentially very useful in complex molecule synthesis.
