Abstract
SmI2-mediated desymmetrization of a meso-cyclic 1,3-dione pinacol coupling is described. The reaction proceeds with high stereoselectivity to provide fused carbocyclic compounds with three contiguous stereogenic centers featuring an all-carbon quaternary center and a cis-1,2-diol moiety.

Abstract
Identification of a common Diels-Alder pattern in three classes of bioactive natural products led us to study the synthesis and cycloaddition of a new class of cyclic dienes readily available from β,γ-unsaturated lactams. A practical and readily scalable route to the parent p-methoxybenzyl-protected 6- and 7-membered β,γ-unsaturated lactams was developed. These were readily transformed into the corresponding O-silylated dienes, which were reacted with dimethyl and diethyl fumarate to yield stereoselectively highly functionalized bicyclic adducts. These exhibited unexpected and versatile transformations upon acid hydrolysis depending on the nature of the dienophile substituents and the acid catalyst. All reactions have been performed on multigram quantities. These transformations provide a convenient, economical, and easily scalable pathway for the rapid construction of functionally and stereochemically dense privileged scaffolds for the construction of libraries of natural products-inspired molecules of pharmacological relevance.

Abstract
Chemical synthesis typically relies on reactions that generate complexity through elaboration of simple starting materials. Less common are deconstructive strategies toward complexity-particularly those involving carbon-carbon bond scission. Here, we introduce one such transformation: the hydrodealkenylative cleavage of C(sp3)-C(sp2) bonds, conducted below room temperature, using ozone, an iron salt, and a hydrogen atom donor. These reactions are performed in nonanhydrous solvents and open to the air; reach completion within 30 minutes; and deliver their products in high yields, even on decagram scales. We have used this broadly functionality tolerant transformation to produce desirable synthetic intermediates, many of which are optically active, from abundantly available terpenes and terpenoid-derived precursors. We have also applied it in the formal total syntheses of complex molecules.

Abstract
The traceless Petasis borono-Mannich reaction of enals, sulfonylhydrazines, and allylboronates, catalyzed by chiral biphenols, results in an asymmetric reductive transposition of the in situ generated allylic diazene. Acyclic 1,4-diene products bearing either alkyl- or aryl-substituted benzylic stereocenters are afforded in excellent yields and enantiomeric ratios of up to 99:1. The use of crotylboronates in the reaction results in concomitant formation of two stereocenters in either a 1,4-syn or anti relationship from the corresponding E- or Z-crotylboronate used in the reaction. The use of β-monosubstituted enals in the asymmetric traceless Petasis borono-Mannich reaction of crotylboronates installs tertiary methyl-bearing stereocenters in good yields and high enantioselectivities.

Abstract
The Robinson annulation is a reaction that has been useful for numerous syntheses since its discovery in 1935, especially in the field of steroid synthesis. The products are usually obtained after three consecutive steps: the formation of an enolate (or derivative), a conjugate addition, and an aldol reaction. Over the years, several methodological improvements have been made for each individual step or alternative routes have been devised to access the Robinson annulation products. The first part of this Review outlines the most relevant developments towards the formation of monocarbonyl-derived Robinson annulation products (MRA products, MRAPs) and activated monocarbonyl-derived Robinson annulation products (AMRA products, AMRAPs). The following sections are then devoted to the diastereoselective and enantioselective synthesis of these products, while the last section describes the enantiomeric resolution of racemic mixtures.

Abstract
The first total synthesis of aspeverin, a prenylated indole alkaloid isolated from Aspergillus versicolor in 2013, is described. Key steps utilized to assemble the core structure of the target include a highly diastereoselective Diels-Alder reaction, a Curtius rearrangement, and a unique strategy for installation of the geminal dimethyl group. A novel iodine(III)-initiated cyclization was then used to install the bicyclic urethane linkage distinctive to the natural product.

Abstract
The identification of synthesizable substructural domains within more complex structural targets is of significant value in designing a workable plan of synthesis. We term this process "pattern recognition analysis" (PRA). In this paper we continued to build on the theme of PRA as a potential resource in retrosynthetic blueprints to reach highly challenging targets. The paper operates at two levels. First, there is provided a clear sense of definitions of categories by which patterns are related to hypothetical reaction types. Although the required reaction type may for the moment not exist, we believe that this method of analysis is likely to promote innovation that identifies unmet needs and opportunities to advance the cause of complex target synthesis. In addition, we describe reductions to practice in expanding the menu of achievable patterns. It is likely that the future value of PRA will be associated with its utility in leading the way to new and exploitable chemical innovation.

Abstract
An enantioselective synthesis of the core framework of neurotrophic Illicium majucin-type sesquiterpenes is described here. This strategy is based on an organocatalyzed asymmetric Robinson annulation and provides an efficient approach for a diversity-oriented synthesis of Illicium natural products that holds remarkable therapeutic potential for neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
Majucin-type sesquiterpenes from Illicium sp., such as jiadifenolide (2), jiadifenin (3), and (1R,10S)-2-oxo-3,4-dehydroxyneomajucin (4, ODNM), possess a complex caged chemical architecture and remarkable neurotrophic activities. As such, they represent attractive small-molecule leads against various neurodegenerative diseases. We present an efficient, enantioselective, and unified synthesis of 2, 3, and 4 and designed analogues that diverge from tetracyclic key intermediate 7. The synthesis of 7 is highlighted by the use of an enantioselective Robinson annulation reaction (construction of the AB rings), a Pd-mediated carbomethoxylation reaction (construction of the C ring), and a one-pot oxidative reaction cascade (construction of the D ring). Evaluation of the neurotrophic activity of these compounds led to the identification of several highly potent small molecules that significantly enhanced the activity of nerve growth factor (NGF) in PC-12 cells. Moreover, efforts to define the common pharmacophoric motif suggest that substitution at the C-10 center significantly affects bioactivity, while the hemiketal moiety of 2 and 3 and the C-1 substitution might not be critical to the neurotrophic activity.
