Abstract
Natural products play an important part in synthetic chemistry since they have many pharmacological properties and are used as active drug compounds in pharmaceutical chemistry. However, synthesis of these complex molecules is difficult due to the requirement of various synthetic steps, which include highly regio- and stereoselectivity. Therefore, oxidative radical cyclization assisted by manganese(III) acetate serves as an important step in obtaining spiro-, tricyclic, tetracyclic, and polycyclic derivatives of these compounds. Manganese(III)-based reactions offer a single-step regio- and stereoselective cyclizations and α-acetoxidations, reducing the number of synthetic steps. Also, the manganese(III)-mediated oxidative free radical cyclization method has been successfully applied for the synthesis of cyclic structures found in many natural products. This article presents a broad overview of manganese(III)-based radical reactions of natural products as a key step in overall synthesis. The authors have classified natural product synthesis processes assisted by manganese(III) acetate as intermolecular, intramolecular, oxidation, acetoxidation, aromatization, and polymerization reactions, respectively.

Abstract
Covering: 1984 up to the end of 2020Hapalindoles, fischerindoles, ambiguines and welwitindolinones are all members of a class of indole alkaloid natural products that have been isolated from the Stigonematales order of cyanobacteria. These compounds possess a polycyclic ring system, unique functional groups and various stereo- and regiochemical isomers. Since their initial isolation in 1984, they have been explored as potential therapeutics due to their wide variety of biological activities. Although numerous groups have pursued total syntheses of these densely functionalized structures, hapalindole biosynthesis has only recently been unveiled. Several groups have uncovered a wide range of novel enzymes that catalyze formation and tailoring of the hapalindole-type metabolites. In this article, we provide an overview of these natural products, their biological activities, highlight general synthetic routes, and provide an extensive review on the surprising biosynthetic processes leading to these structurally diverse metabolites.

Abstract
Hapalindoles and related compounds (ambiguines, fischerindoles, welwitindolinones) are a diverse class of indole alkaloid natural products. They are typically isolated from the Stigonemataceae order of cyanobacteria and possess a broad scope of biological activities. Recently the biosynthetic pathway for assembly of these metabolites has been elucidated. In order to generate the core ring system, L-tryptophan is converted into the cis-indole isonitrile subunit before being prenylated with geranyl pyrophosphate at the C-3 position. A class of cyclases (Stig) catalyzes a three-step process including a Cope rearrangement, 6-exo-trig cyclization and electrophilic aromatic substitution to create a polycyclic core. Formation of the initial alkaloid is followed by diverse late-stage tailoring reactions mediated by additional biosynthetic enzymes to give rise to the wide array of structural variations observed in this compound class. Herein, we demonstrate the versatility and utility of the Fam prenyltransferase and Stig cyclases toward core structural diversification of this family of indole alkaloids. Through synthesis of cis-indole isonitrile subunit derivatives, and aided by protein engineering and computational analysis, we have employed cascade biocatalysis to generate a range of derivatives, and gained insights into the basis for substrate flexibility in this system.

Abstract
C4-decorated indoles feature in a plethora of bioactive and functional compounds of importance to natural product synthesis, material sciences, as well as crop protection and pharmaceutical industries. Traditionally, their syntheses largely involved harsh stoichiometric metalations and radical reactions. However, transition metal catalysed C-H activation has recently evolved into a powerful strategy for the late-stage diversification of indoles at the C4-H position. Modern photoredox, enzymatic and precious transition metal catalysis represent the key stimuli for developing challenging C-C and C-Het bond forming transformations under mild reaction conditions. Herein, we discuss the evolution and application of these methods for the step-economical transformations of otherwise inert C4-H bonds up to December 2017.

Abstract
First-row transition-metal-mediated reactions constitute an important and growing area of research due to the low cost, low toxicity, and exceptional synthetic versatility of these metals. Currently, there is considerable effort to replace existing precious-metal-catalyzed reactions with first-row analogs. More importantly, there are a plethora of unique transformations mediated by first-row metals, which have no classical second- or third-row counterpart. Herein, the application of first-row metal-mediated methods to the total synthesis of natural products is discussed. This Review is intended to highlight strategic uses of these metals to realize efficient syntheses and highlight the future potential of these reagents and catalysts in organic synthesis.

Abstract
Progress toward the welwitindolinone alkaloid N-methylwelwitindolinone B isothiocyanate is reported. A key reaction to synthesize the [4.3.1] bicycle embedded in the core of the molecule is a furan type 2 intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction with a tetrasubstituted dienophile, which sets the two vicinal quaternary centers present in the natural product. The sterically encumbered cycloaddition precursor was synthesized using a Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons reaction followed by a Suzuki cross-coupling reaction. Finally, introduction of the secondary alkyl chloride was achieved by a regio- and diastereoselective opening of a [2.2.1] oxobicycloheptane functionality.

Abstract
The first asymmetric total synthesis of (-)-ophiodilactone A and (-)-ophiodilactone B, isolated from the ophiuroid (Ophiocoma scolopendrina), is reported. The key features of the synthesis include the highly stereocontrolled construction of the structurally congested γ-lactone/δ-lactone skeleton through an asymmetric epoxidation, diastereoselective iodolactonization, and intramolecular epoxide-opening with a carboxylic acid, and biomimetic radical cyclization of ophiodilactone A to ophiodilactone B.

Abstract
We report the total synthesis of (-)-N-methylwelwitindolinone C isonitrile, in addition to the total syntheses of the 3-hydroxylated welwitindolinones. Our routes to these elusive natural products feature the strategic use of a deuterium kinetic isotope effect to improve the efficiency of a late-stage nitrene insertion reaction. We also provide a computational prediction for the stereochemical configuration at C3 of the hydroxylated welwitindolinones, which was confirmed by experimental studies.

Abstract
As part of a comprehensive strategy to the welwitindolinone alkaloids possessing a bicyclo[4.3.1]decane core, we report herein concise asymmetric total syntheses of (-)-N-methylwelwitindolinone C isothiocyanate (2a), (-)-N-methylwelwitindolinone C isonitrile (2b), and (-)-3-hydroxy-N-methylwelwitindolinone C isothiocyanate (3a) from a common tetracyclic intermediate. The crucial vinyl chloride moiety was installed through electrophilic chlorination of a hydrazone, but only after adjustment of reactivity to circumvent a facile skeletal rearrangement. Selective desulfurization and oxidation of 2a provided access to 2b and 3a, respectively. Notably, this work provides corrected (1)H and (13)C NMR spectral data for 3a.
