Abstract
The structure-activity relationship of the unusual indolosesquiterpenoid mycoleptodiscin A is unknown due to natural scarcity and inefficient synthesis. A modular approach leveraging Larock indole synthesis has been established to access mycoleptodiscin A and a divergent collection of drimenyl indoles. It features the utilization of an inexpensive (+)-sclareolide, modularity, purification-economy, and scalability, which facilitates the first biological evaluation of mycoleptodiscin A and related precursors.

Abstract
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) can easily form biofilms on food surfaces, thus leading to cross-contamination, which is difficult to remove. Therefore, there is an urgent need to find alternatives with good antibacterial and antibiofilm effects. In this study, two indole sesquiterpene compounds, xiamycin (1) and chlorinated metabolite chloroxiamycin (2), were isolated from the fermentation liquid of marine Streptomyces sp. NBU3429 for the first time. The chemical structures of the two compounds were characterized by spectroscopic data interpretation, including 1D NMR and HRESIMS analysis. Antimicrobial test showed that chloroxiamycin (2) (minimum inhibitory concentration, MIC = 16 μg/mL) exhibited superior antibacterial activity than xiamycin (1) (MIC = 32 μg/mL) against MRSA ATCC43300. Moreover, compound (2) decreased the biofilm formation rate of MRSA ATCC43300 by 12.7%-84.6% in the concentration range of 32-512 μg/mL, which is relatively stronger than xiamycin (1) (4.1%-49.9%) as well. Antibacterial/antibiofilm mechanism investigation indicated that chloroxiamycin (2) could disrupt the cell wall and membrane of MRSA, inhibiting the production of biofilm extracellular polysaccharides. All these results illustrated that chloroxiamycin (2) is an effective antibacterial/antibiofilm agent, which makes it an attractive candidate for food preservatives.

Abstract
Dimeric indolosesquiterpene alkaloids, typically N-N- and C-N-linked xiamycin dimers, feature a pentacyclic framework with four contiguous stereogenic centers at the periphery of a trans-decalin scaffold to which a carbazole unit is attached. In comparison with actual biosynthetic dixiamycin derivatives, we designed C-C-linked xiamycin dimers, aiming to use them as a powerful tool to create unique scaffolds as drug candidates. In this work, we disclose the first synthetic route to access a C-C dimeric indolosesquiterpene skeleton, featuring a hypervalent iodine (PIFA)-catalyzed oxidative dimerization reaction in a single-step operation with overwhelming control over the chemoselectivity and regioselectivity. This strategy has been successfully applied to the synthesis of a C-C dimer of xiamycin A (3) and xiamycin A methyl ester (15) that demonstrates a new synthetic pathway for dimeric indolosesquiterpene alkaloids.

Abstract
Centromere protein A (CENP-A), a histone H3 variant specific to centromeres, is crucial for kinetochore positioning and chromosome segregation. However, its regulatory mechanism in human cells remains incompletely understood. A structure-activity relationship (SAR) study of the cell-cycle-arresting indole terpenoid mimic JP18 leads to the discovery of two more potent analogs, (+)-6-Br-JP18 and (+)-6-Cl-JP18. Tubulin is identified as a potential cellular target of these halogenated analogs by using the drug affinity responsive target stability (DARTS) based method. X-ray crystallography analysis reveals that both molecules bind to the colchicine-binding site of β-tubulin. Treatment of human cells with microtubule-targeting agents (MTAs), including these two compounds, results in CENP-A accumulation by destabilizing Cdh1, a co-activator of the anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) E3 ubiquitin ligase. This study establishes a link between microtubule dynamics and CENP-A accumulation using small-molecule tools and highlights the role of Cdh1 in CENP-A proteolysis.

Abstract
The development of new anti-cancer agents is an urgent necessity nowadays, as it is one of the major causes of mortality worldwide. Many drugs currently used are derived from natural products. Halimanes are a class of bicyclic diterpenoids present in various plants and microorganisms. Many of them exhibit biological activities such as antitumor, antimicrobial, or anti-inflammatory. Among them, ent-halimic acid is an easily accessible compound, in large quantities, from the ethyl acetate extract of the plant Halimium viscosum, and it has been used as a starting material in a number of bioactive molecules. In this work, we review all the natural halimanes with antitumor and related activities until date as well as the synthesis of antitumor compounds using ent-halimic acid as a starting material.

Abstract
Ocimum basilicum Linn. (basil) is an aromatic culinary herb that has shown a great potential in therapeutic world. It has many promising pharmacological activities that make it centre for investigations for many researchers. Current study has been planned to determine chemical constituents of basil leaves extracts and their in-vitro and ex-vivo antioxidant and in-vivo antihypertensive potential. GC-MS studies of non-polar extracts showed presence of 75 compounds including monoterpenes, hydrocarbons, sesquiterpenes, triterpenes, phyto-sterols and phthalates. Higher percentages of fatty acids were also identified. The major compounds include linalool (7.65%), terpineol (1.42%), tau-cadinol (13.55%), methyl palmitate (14.24%), palmitic acid (14.31%), linolenic acid (1.30%) and methyl linolenate (17.72%). Electron spray ionization mass spectrometry ESI-HRMS/MS of the polar extracts revealed the presence of alkaloids, phenolic acid, amino acid, coumarin, lignin, flavanoid and terpene derivative. Total phenolic content and total flavonoid content were determined using spectrophotometric technique and calculated as gallic acid equivalents GAE/g dry weight and rutin equivalent RE/g of dry weight respectively. The highest phenolic content and flavonoid content were found in ethyl acetate extract 9.40 mg GAE/g and 15.9 mg RE/g of dry weight. All the extracts showed significant antioxidant activity in DPPH and ABTS cation decolorization assays. Dichloromethane extract possess the highest DPPH scavenging activity, i.e., 64.12% ± 0.23 at concentration of 4 mg/ml. Moreover in ex-vivo studies all the extracts showed prominent effect by inhibiting AAPS induce oxidation in Human erythrocytes being 69.24% ± 0.18 in dichloromethane extract, 64.44% ± 0.04 in ethyl acetate and 53.33% ± 0.09 in acetone extract. The methanol extract of O. basilicum exhibited significant decrease in systolic blood pressure in l-Name induced hypertensive rats at the dose of 50 mg/kg for 28 days. Total phenolic content had a higher linear correlation (r = 0.678) with antihypertensive activity, with a level of significance 95% showing that phenolic compounds in the leaves of the plant has important role in inhibiting l -NAME induced hypertension while flavonoid compounds may play a key role in the antioxidant activities of the plant, through synergism. Conclusively, O. basilicum leaves with bioactive metabolites are a potential source for the development of antihypertensive drugs.

Abstract
Whereas iron catalysts usually promote catalyzed C3-alkylation of indole derivatives via a borrowing-hydrogen methodology using alcohols as the electrophilic partners, this contribution shows how to switch the selectivity towards N-alkylation. Thus, starting from indoline derivatives, N-alkylation was efficiently performed using a tricarbonyl(cyclopentadienone) iron complex as the catalyst in trifluoroethanol in the presence of alcohols leading to the corresponding N-alkylated indoline derivatives in 31-99 % yields (28 examples). The one-pot, two-step strategy for the selective N-alkylation of indolines is completed by an oxidation to give the corresponding N-alkylated indoles in 31-90 % yields (15 examples). This unprecedented oxidation methodology involves an iron salt catalyst associated with (2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-yl)oxyl (TEMPO) and a stoichiometric amount of t-BuOOH at room temperature.

Abstract
An important class of N -heteroacenes is indoloindoles which are air-stable, electron-rich and possesses many tuneable properties. Initially, indoloindoles were explored for potential biological applications but current interest is based on their performance as photovoltaic materials. With growing applications of indoloindoles across multiple facets as organic functional materials, the need for efficient methods to synthesize and functionalize indoloindoles has taken a centre stage. Over the years, synthetic routes leading to indoloindoles have evolved from multistep protocols to one-pot multicomponent synthesis. Present literature boasts of a variety of reports that employ metals such as Cu, Ru, Rh, Pd, or Au to mediate the reaction towards indoloindoles. As alternatives to such metal-mediated methods, researchers have also developed metal-free and catalyst-free conditions. Indoloindoles, which are fundamentally fused-indoles, are often synthesized by transforming indole derivatives but methods that employ anilines or arynes as the starting substrates are equally abundant. The present review highlights the rich diversity and versatility of recent literature for the synthesis of indolo[3,2- b ]indoles, indolo[2,3- b ]indoles, indolo[7,6- g ]indoles, and indolo[5,4- e ]indoles. This review discusses protocols that were explicitly designed to obtain the above-mentioned indoloindoles and also explores several other methods that can be adapted to access said heteroacenes. Available mechanistic details pertaining to novel transformations have been detailed for the readers. Various applications where indoloindoles function as organic light-emitting diodes, organic field-effect transistors, solar cells, etc. have also been delved into before concluding with an outlook on future research.

Abstract
Concise total syntheses of naturally occurring antiviral indolosesquiterpene alkaloids, xiamycin C (2a), D (2b), E (2c) and F (2d), have been achieved via a late-stage oxidative δ-Csp3–H functionalization of an advanced pentacyclic enone intermediate 8. This strategy takes advantage of ipso-nitration of naturally occurring abietane diterpenoids to synthesize o-bromo nitroarene derivative 11. A Suzuki–Miyaura coupling of 11 with phenylboronic acid followed by Cadogan's ring closure provided a modular approach to a carbazole ring required for a functionalized pentacyclic core of indolosesquiterpene alkaloids. Enantioenriched enone 8 was synthesized via three key transformations: ipso-nitration of abietane diterpenoids to furnish o-bromo nitroarene 11, Suzuki coupling with phenylboronic acid, and Cadogan's reductive ring closure to craft a carbazole ring.![]()

Abstract
trans-syn-Fused drimane meroterpenoids are unique natural products that arise from contra-thermodynamic polycyclizations of their polyene precursors. Herein we report the first total syntheses of four trans-syn-fused drimane meroterpenoids, namely polysin, N-acetyl-polyveoline, chrodrimanin C, and verruculide A, in 7-18 steps from sclareolide. The trans-syn-fused drimane unit is accessed through an efficient acid-mediated C9 epimerization of sclareolide. Subsequent applications of enzymatic C-H oxidation and contemporary annulation methodologies install the requisite C3 hydroxyl group and enable rapid generation of structural complexity to provide concise access to these natural products.

Abstract
Fungal meroterpenoids are secondary metabolites from mixed terpene-biosynthetic origins. Their intriguing chemical structural diversification and complexity, potential bioactivities, and pharmacological significance make them attractive targets in natural product chemistry, organic synthesis, and biosynthesis. This review provides a systematic overview of the isolation, chemical structural features, biological activities, and fungal biodiversity of 1585 novel meroterpenoids from 79 genera terrestrial and marine-derived fungi including macrofungi, Basidiomycetes, in 441 research papers in 2009-2019. Based on the nonterpenoid starting moiety in their biosynthesis pathway, meroterpenoids were classified into four categories (polyketide-terpenoid, indole-, shikimate-, and miscellaneous-) with polyketide-terpenoids (mainly tetraketide-) and shikimate-terpenoids as the primary source. Basidiomycota produced 37.5% of meroterpenoids, mostly shikimate-terpenoids. The genera of Ganoderma, Penicillium, Aspergillus, and Stachybotrys are the four dominant producers. Moreover, about 56% of meroterpenoids display various pronounced bioactivities, including cytotoxicity, enzyme inhibition, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antifungal activities. It's exciting that several meroterpenoids including antroquinonol and 4-acetyl antroquinonol B were developed into phase II clinically used drugs. We assume that the chemical diversity and therapeutic potential of these fungal meroterpenoids will provide biologists and medicinal chemists with a large promising sustainable treasure-trove for drug discovery.

Abstract
The teleocidin B family members are terpene indole compounds isolated from Streptomyces bacteria, and they strongly activate protein kinase C (PKC). Their unique structures have attracted many researchers in the natural product chemistry and pharmacology fields, and numerous isolation and bioactivity studies have been conducted. The accumulated information has facilitated the identification of the enzymatic reactions in teleocidin biosynthesis, and new developments in structural biology have strongly aided efforts to clarify the finer points of these reactions. This review describes the recent biochemical and structural biological studies to reveal their reaction mechanisms, with a primary focus on the terpene cyclization triggered by the C-N bond formation by P450 oxygenase (TleB), the prenyltransferase (TleC), and the methyltransferase (TleD). This new knowledge will benefit future engineering studies to create unnatural PKC activators.

Abstract
Natural disesquiterpenoids represent a small group of secondary metabolites characterized by complex molecular scaffolds and interesting pharmacological profiles. In the last decade, more than 400 new disesquiterpenoids have been discovered and fully characterized, pointing out once more the "magic touch" of nature in the design of new compounds. The perfect blend of complex and unique architectures and biological activity has made sesquiterpene dimers an attractive and challenging synthetic target, inspiring organic chemists to find new and biomimetic approaches to replicate the efficiency and the selectivity of natural processes under laboratory conditions. In this work, we present a review covering the literature from 2010 to 2020 reporting all the efforts made in the total synthesis of complex natural disesquiterpenoids.

Abstract
The palladium-catalyzed intramolecular dearomative Heck reaction of 2,3-disubstituted indoles serves as an access to spiro-indoline products. Herein, we report an efficient construction of indoline/indolenine core stuctures via a dearomative Heck reaction of simple 2,3-disubstituted indoles with all-carbon tethers and the subsequent aza-semipinacol rearrangement. The Heck reaction features a high C2-selectivity, and the stereospecific aryl/alkyl migration selectivity has been investigated by DFT calculations. Using this method, we accomplished the formal total synthesis of akuammiline alkaloids vincorine.

Abstract
By the end of the twentieth century, the interest in natural compounds as probable sources of drugs has declined and was replaced by other strategies such as molecular target-based drug discovery. However, in the recent times, natural compounds regained their position as extremely important source drug leads. Indole-containing compounds are under clinical use which includes vinblastine and vincristine (anticancer), atevirdine (anti-HIV), yohimbine (erectile dysfunction), reserpine (antihypertension), ajmalicine (vascular disorders), ajmaline (anti-arrhythmic), vincamine (vasodilator), etc. Monoterpene Indole Alkaloids (MIAs) deserve the curiosity and attention of researchers due to their chemical diversity and biological activities. These compounds were considered as an impending source of drug-lead. In this review 444 compounds, were identified from six genera belonging to the family Apocynaceae, will be discussed. These genera (Alstonia, Rauvolfia, Kopsia, Ervatamia, and Tabernaemontana, and Rhazya) consist of 400 members and represent 20% of Apocynaceae species. Only 30 (7.5%) species were investigated, whereas the rest are promising to be investigated. Eleven bioactivities, including antibacterial, antifungal, anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressant activities, were reported. Whereas cytotoxic effect represents 47% of the reported activities. Convincingly, the genera selected in this review are a wealthy source for future anticancer drug lead.

Abstract
A catalytic asymmetric decarboxylative [3 + 2] annulation via indolyl copper-allenylidene amphiphilic intermediates has been developed. This protocol offers a straightforward method for the synthesis of biologically important pyrrolo[1,2-a]indoles bearing contiguous quaternary and tertiary stereogenic centers with excellent diastereo- and enantioselectivities (up to >20:1 dr and >99% ee). In addition, the diversity-oriented synthesis of pyrrolo[1,2-a]indoles was achieved via versatile transformations of the alkyne-containing cycloadducts.

Abstract
Marine actinobacterium Streptomyces xinghaiensis NRRL B-24674T has been characterized as a novel species, but thus far, its biosynthetic potential remains unexplored. In this study, the high-quality genome sequence of S. xinghaiensis NRRL B-24674T was obtained, and the production of anticomplement agents, xiamycin analogs, and siderophores was investigated by genome mining. Anticomplement compounds are valuable for combating numerous diseases caused by the abnormal activation of the human complement system. The biosynthetic gene cluster (BGC) nrps1 resembles that of complestatins, which are potent microbial-derived anticomplement agents. The identification of the nrps1 BGC revealed a core peptide that differed from that in complestatin; thus, we studied the anticomplement activity of this strain. The culture broth of S. xinghaiensis NRRL B-24674T displayed good anticomplement activity. Subsequently, the disruption of the genes in the nrps1 BGC resulted in the loss of anticomplement activity, confirming the involvement of this BGC in the biosynthesis of anticomplement agents. In addition, the mining of the BGC tep5, which resembles that of the antiviral pentacyclic indolosesquiterpene xiamycin, resulted in the discovery of nine xiamycin analogs, including three novel compounds. In addition to the BGCs responsible for desferrioxamine B, neomycin, ectoine, and carotenoid, 18 BGCs present in the genome are predicted to be novel. The results of this study unveil the potential of S. xinghaiensis as a producer of novel anticomplement agents and provide a basis for further exploration of the biosynthetic potential of S. xinghaiensis NRRL B-24674T for the discovery of novel bioactive compounds by genome mining.

Abstract
Indole terpenoids comprise a large class of natural products with diverse structural topologies and a broad range of biological activities. Accordingly, indole terpenoids have and continue to serve as attractive targets for chemical synthesis. Many synthetic efforts over the past few years have focused on a subclass of this family, the indole diterpenoids.
