Abstract
The construction of a small molecule library that includes compounds with medium-sized rings is increasingly essential in drug discovery. These compounds are essential for identifying novel therapeutic agents capable of targeting "undruggable" targets through high-throughput and high-content screening, given their structural complexity and diversity. However, synthesizing medium-sized rings presents notable challenges, particularly with direct cyclization methods, due to issues such as transannular strain and reduced degrees of freedom. This review presents an overview of current strategies in synthesizing medium-sized rings, emphasizing innovative approaches like ring-expansion reactions. It highlights the challenges of synthesis and the potential of these compounds to diversify the chemical space for drug discovery, underscoring the importance of medium-sized rings in developing new bioactive compounds.

Abstract
In this Letter, we demonstrate the usefulness of hydrazone activation for the synthesis of biologically relevant tetrahydroindolizines. A pyrrol-derived hydrazone bearing a Michael acceptor moiety in the N-alkyl side chain has been designed with the aim of participating in the aminocatalytic cascade reaction leading to the annulation of the new six-membered heterocyclic scaffold. The application of (S)-(-)-α,α-diphenyl-2-pyrrolidinemethanol trimethylsilyl ether as the aminocatalyst allows for the iminium ion-enamine-mediated cascade to proceed in a fully stereoselective manner.

Abstract
Herein we report a branch-selective allylation strategy for accessing C2-indolyl-all-carbon quaternary centers using allylboronic acids. This approach boasts broad functional group tolerance, scalability, and relies on easily accessible allyl alcohol precursors. Importantly, the C3-position of the indole remains free, offering a handle for further synthetic refinement. Mechanistic pathways, corroborated by density functional theory (DFT), suggest the involvement of an indolenine intermediate and a Zimmerman-Traxler-like transition state during allylboration. Demonstrating its efficacy, the method was applied to the total synthesis of the (±)-mersicarpine alkaloid and enabled formal synthesis of additional alkaloids, such as (±)-scholarisine G, (±)-melodinine E, and (±)-leuconoxine.

Nitrene C-H Bond Insertion Approach to Carbazolones and Indolones, and a Reactivity Departure for 7-Membered Analogues. Chemistry 2023; 29:e202302995.

Abstract
A modular platform for facile access to 1,2,3,9-tetrahydro-4H-carbazol-4-ones (H4 -carbazolones) and 3,4-dihydrocyclopenta[b]indol-1(2H)-ones (H2 -indolones) is described. The requisite 6- and 5-membered 2-arylcycloalkane-1,3-dione precursors were readily obtained through a Cu-catalyzed arylation of 1,3-cyclohexanediones or by a ring expansion of aryl succinoin derivatives. Enolization of one carbonyl group in the diones, conversion to a leaving group, and subsequent azidation gave 2-aryl-3-azidocycloalk-2-en-1-ones. This two-step, one-pot azidation is highly regioselective with unsymmetrically substituted 2-arylcyclohexane-1,3-diones. The regioselectivity, which is important for access to single isomers of 3,3-disubstituted carbazolones, was analyzed mechanistically and computationally. Finally, a Rh-catalyzed nitrene/nitrenoid insertion into the ortho C-H bond of the aryl moiety gave the H4 -carbazolones and H2 -indolones. One carbazolone was elaborated to an intermediate reported in the total synthesis of N-decarbomethoxychanofruticosinate, (-)-aspidospermidine, (+)-kopsihainanine A. With 2-phenylcycloheptane-1,3-dione, prepared from cyclohexanone and benzaldehyde, the azidation reaction was readily accomplished. However, the Rh-catalyzed reaction unexpectedly led to a labile but characterizable azirine rather than the indole derivative. Computations were performed to understand the differences in reactivities of the 5- and 6-membered 2-aryl-3-azidocycloalk-2-en-1-ones in comparison to the 7-membered analogue, and to support the structural assignment of the azirine.

Abstract
Unactivated olefins are converted to alkyl azides with bench-stable NaN3 in the presence of FeCl3·6H2O under blue-light irradiation. The products are obtained with anti-Markovnikov selectivity, and the reaction can be performed under mild ambient conditions in the presence of air and moisture. The transformation displays broad functional group tolerance, which renders it suitable for functionalization of complex molecules. Mechanistic investigations are conducted to provide insight into the hydroazidation reaction and reveal the role of water from the iron hydrate as the H atom source.

Abstract
A concise strategy for the total synthesis of several Aspidosperma alkaloids is reported. A Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling provides access to a 2-vinyl indole that undergoes a Diels-Alder cascade reaction with butyn-2-one to deliver a pyrroloindoline intermediate. This undergoes cascade amidation, reduction, skeletal rearrangement, and intramolecular Michael addition to provide a common intermediate containing the full framework of the Aspidosperma alkaloids. The utility of this intermediate is shown in the synthesis of four different natural products.

Abstract
A Ru(II)-catalyzed decarbonylative alkylation and annulation of salicylaldehydes and 2-aminobenzaldehydes with iodonium ylides has been developed for the synthesis of dibenzo[b,d]furans and NH-free carbazolones. The reaction proceeds smoothly under mild conditions with a low catalyst loading and a broad substrate compatibility. Notably, hydroxy and free amino groups were demonstrated to be the effective directing groups, enabling the successful aldehyde C-H bond activation and subsequent decarbonylation and annulation under the inexpensive Ru(II) catalyst.

Abstract
Covering: up to 2022Pyrroloindoline is a privileged tricyclic indoline motif widely present in many biologically active and medicinally valuable natural products. Thus, understanding the biosynthesis of this molecule is critical for developing convenient synthetic routes, which is highly challenging for its chemical synthesis due to the presence of rich chiral centers in this molecule, especially the fully substituted chiral carbon center at the C3-position of its rigid tricyclic structure. In recent years, progress has been made in elucidating the biosynthetic pathways and enzymatic mechanisms of pyrroloindoline-containing natural products (PiNPs). This article reviews the main advances in the past few decades based on the different substitutions on the C3 position of PiNPs, especially the various key enzymatic mechanisms involved in the biosynthesis of different types of PiNPs.

Abstract
In the total synthesis of natural products, synthetic efficiency has been an important driver for designing and developing new synthetic strategies and methodologies. To this end, the step, atom, and time economy and the overall yield are major factors to be considered. On the other hand, developing unified routes that can be used for synthesizing multiple molecules, specifically skeletally different classes of molecules, are also important aspects with which to be concerned. In the efforts toward efficient and flexible synthesis of structurally unique terpenoid and indole alkaloid natural products, we have designed and developed several phosphinamide-based new catalysts and reaction methodologies that have been compellingly demonstrated to be widely useful as strategic protocols for the diverse synthesis of various complex terpenoids and indole alkaloids. The important progress of these results will be summarized in this Account.In the first part, we present the stories of successful design and establishment of a novel method for the synthesis of P-stereogenic phosphinamides (P-SPhos) via a Pd-catalyzed C-H desymmetric enantioselective arylation, as well as the flexible derivatization of the P-stereogenic phosphinamides into various types of skeletally unique tricyclic and N,P-bidentate P-stereogenic compounds. Subsequently, the discovery of P-stereogenic phosphinamides as chiral organocatalysts for the desymmetric enantioselective reduction of cyclic 1,3-diketones and of phosphinamide-based cyclopalladium complex (C-Pd) as precatalysts for highly efficient Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction of sterically congested nonactivated enolates is introduced. The notable features of the P-stereogenic phosphinamide-catalyzed desymmetric enantioselective reduction are highlighted by the broad substrate compatibility and excellent stereoselectivity, as well as most significantly, the good recoverability and reusability of catalysts. With regard to the sterically congested nonactivated enolates, such substrates are challenging for Suzuki cross-coupling reactions. We demonstrate that the phosphinamide-based cyclopalladium is a type of highly active precatalyst that allows the reaction to proceed under mild conditions and to be easily scaled up. Following the methodology development, the practical applications of these methods serving as strategic transformations are highlighted by the unified synthesis of four cyathane-type and two hamigeran-type terpenoids.In the second part, we describe the development of a robust method for oxidative Heck cross-coupling of indolyl amides by using the phosphinamide-based cyclopalladium as catalyst or phosphinamide as coligand. The method provides a general and straightforward method for diverse synthesis of indolyl δ-lactam derivatives, which present as a common core in a variety of Aspidosperma-derived indole alkaloids. The successful demonstration of this protocol for a concise and divergent synthesis of leuconodine-type indole alkaloids is also presented. We believe the results presented in this Account would have significant implications beyond our results and would find further applications in the field of synthetic methodology and natural product synthesis.

Abstract
Complanadine A and lycodine are representative members of the Lycopodium alkaloids with a characteristic pyridine-containing tetracyclic skeleton. Complanadine A has demonstrated promising neurotrophic activity and potential for persistent pain management. Herein we report a pyrrole strategy enabled by one-carbon insertion and polarity inversion for concise total syntheses of complanadine A and lycodine. The use of a pyrrole as the pyridine precursor allowed the rapid construction of their tetracyclic skeleton via a one-pot Staudinger reduction, amine-ketone condensation, and Mannich-type cyclization. The pyrrole group was then converted to the desired pyridine by the Ciamician-Dennstedt rearrangement via a one-carbon insertion process, which also simultaneously introduced a chloride at C3 for the next C-H arylation. Other key steps include a direct anti-Markovnikov hydroazidation, a Mukaiyama-Michael addition, and a Paal-Knorr pyrrole synthesis. Lycodine and complanadine A were prepared in 8 and 11 steps, respectively, from a readily available known compound.

Abstract
The pseudoindoxyl sub-structural motif, amongst the large set of the indole class of alkaloids, represents a unique subset of the oxygenated indole class of the alkaloid family. A majority of this class of natural products contains complex bridged/polycyclic scaffolds with interesting biological profiles. They are thus attractive synthetic targets. Starting from 1963, twenty-eight natural products having the pseudoindoxyl scaffold have been isolated, among which the synthesis of 13 natural products has been accomplished. In this review, we highlight the completed as well as the formal total synthesis of the natural products with a spiro-pseudoindoxyl ring, with a focus on their development. The challenges and the future perspective based on the recent developments in the field will also be discussed. We strongly believe that this review will not only update but also attract the attention of researchers in dealing with the synthesis of pseudoindoxyl compounds.

Abstract
Mersicarpine is an aspidosperma alkaloid isolated from the Kopsia genus of plants. Its intriguing structural features have attracted much attention in synthetic organic chemistry, but no biological activity has been reported. Here, we report the effects of mersicarpine on human leukemia cell line HL60. At concentrations above 30 µm, mersicarpine reversibly arrested cell cycle progression in S-phase. At higher concentrations, it induced not only production of reactive oxygen species, but also apoptosis. Macromolecular synthesis assay revealed that mersicarpine specifically inhibits protein synthesis. These results suggest that mersicarpine is a novel translation inhibitor that induces apoptosis.

Abstract
A modular approach has been developed for an efficient synthesis of an aminal group containing a new tetracyclic framework. The strategy has been devised based on selective hydrogen-bond-guided aza-Michael addition of heteroaromatic amines to cyclohexadienone-aldehydes. The reaction is highly atom economic and practical and involves stereoselective construction of four new C-N bonds and four rings. The synthetic utility of the tetracyclic product was explored. The role of a H-bond was explained with the help of experimental and density functional theory (DFT) computation studies.

Abstract
The tryptamine-derived polycyclic bridged bioactive indole alkaloids subincanadines A-G were isolated in 2002 by Ohsaki and coworkers from the bark of the Brazilian medicinal plant Aspidosperma subincanum. Kobayashi proposed that subincanadines D-F could be biosynthetically resulting from stemmadenine via two different pathways and, furthermore, that the subincanadines A-C could be biogenetically resulting from subincanadines D and E. Kam and coworkers, in their focused efforts, isolated five indole alkaloids from Malaysian Kopsia arborea species, namely valparicine, apparicine, arboridinine, arborisidine, and arbornamine in combination with subincanadine E. On the basis of structural features, it has been proposed and proved in some examples that subincanadine E is a biogenetic precursor of these five different bioactive indole alkaloids bearing complex structural architectures. All important information on isolation, characterization, bioactivity, probable biogenetic pathways, and more specifically racemic and enantioselective total synthesis of subincanadine alkaloids and their biogenetic congeners are summarized in the present chapter. Special importance is given to the total synthesis and the synthetic strategies intended therein, comprising a set of main reactions.

Abstract
A method for the generation of 5-isoxazolidinones with exocyclic phosphonium ylide functionalities via [2+3] cycloaddition of Ph3PCCO and aldonitrones has been developed and applied in the synthesis of 4-alkylidene-5-isoxazolidinones via Wittig olefination. The reaction proceeds by BPh3 catalysis under mild conditions and with a broad substrate scope. A reaction pathway involving the activation of the aldonitrone via interactions with the Lewis acid BPh3 is proposed.

Abstract
The [6.5.6]-tricyclic indole δ-lactam represents a common key intermediate for the synthesis of a broad variety of structurally intriguing indole alkaloids. The development of a method for the versatile and straightforward construction of such structural motif is of great importance for potential synthetic applications. Herein, we present a co-ligand-prompted Pd-catalyzed 6-exo-trig intramolecular cyclization of indolyl amides via the aerobic oxidative Heck cross-coupling. The method provided a general and efficient way for the construction of [6.5.6]-tricyclic indole δ-lactams. A mechanistic study suggests that a Pd(I)/Pd(III) catalytic cycle should be responsible for effective coupling, which represents a mechanistically alternative pathway when compared with the Pd(0)/Pd(II) cycle proposed for other related coupling reactions.

Abstract
We herein report a direct intermolecular anti-Markovnikov hydroazidation method for unactivated olefins, which is promoted by a catalytic amount of bench-stable benziodoxole at ambient temperature. This method facilitates previously difficult, direct addition of hydrazoic acid across a wide variety of unactivated olefins in both complex molecules and unfunctionalized commodity chemicals. It conveniently fills a synthetic chemistry gap of existing olefin hydroazidation procedures, and thereby provides a valuable tool for azido-group labeling in organic synthesis and chemical biology studies.

Abstract
This paper describes an access to new nitrogen-containing heterocyclic triterpenoids by the reaction of 2,3-indolotriterpenoids with ozone and dimethyldioxirane. The oxidation of indolo-fused 28-oxo-allobetulin or methyl platanoate with ozone led to a mixture of a quinolone as the major product and a nine-membered 2,3-seco-2-oxolactam and three different types of spiroindoles as byproducts. The formation of quinolone and 2,3-seco-2-oxolactam derivatives could be explained by the standard 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of ozone to the C2(3)-double bond of the triterpene core similar to the products observed in the ozonolysis of indoles in the Witkop-Winterfeldt oxidation (WWO). The formation of spiroindoles was unexpected and could be explained through the 1,2-cycloaddition of ozone to the C2(3)-double bond with consecutive intramolecular rearrangements of the 2,3-epoxy-intermediate. These spiroindoles seem to be novel structures observed in the WWO reaction. The formation of only two isomeric triterpene spiroindolinones was achieved by the oxidation of 2,3-indolo-28-oxo-allobetulin with dimethyldioxirane that could be explained by the rearrangement of the 2,3-epoxy-intermediate. 19β,28-Epoxy-18α-olean-28-oxo-2-nor-2,3-4'(1H)-quinolone was the most active against HPV-11 with EC50 0.45 μM and SI50 322 in a primary assay and SI90 < 10 against HPV-16 in a secondary assay. The oxidative transformations of indolotriterpenoids have great potential for further modifications towards the preparation of new biologically active compounds.

Abstract
Bridged lactams represent the most effective and wide-ranging method of constraining the amide bond in a non-planar conformation. A previous comprehensive review on this topic was published in 2013 (Chem. Rev.2013, 113, 5701–5765). In the present review, which is published as a part of the Special Issue on Amide Bond Activation, we present an overview of the recent developments in the field of bridged lactams that have taken place in the last five years and present a critical assessment of the current status of bridged lactams in synthetic and physical organic chemistry. This review covers the period from 2014 until the end of 2018 and is intended as an update to Chem. Rev.2013, 113, 5701–5765. In addition to bridged lactams, the review covers recent advances in the chemistry of bridged sultams, bridged enamines and related non-planar structures.
