Abstract
We report quantum mechanics calculations and quasiclassical trajectory simulations of [4 + 2] reactions using three common dienolate substrates: siloxy dienes, Li dienolates, and conjugated Pd enolates. Asynchronous transition structures and unequal bond formation were invariably found, with average time gaps of developing bonds ranging from 26.5 to >251.0 fs. The results display a spectrum of dynamically concerted and stepwise [4 + 2] reactions, offering insights into the origin of the stereochemical outcomes of such reactions.

Abstract
The synthesis of natural products with complicated architectures often requires the use of segments with functional groups that can be structurally transformed with the desired stereogenic centers. Bicyclic 𝛾-lactones have great potential as a suitable segment for natural product synthesis. However, the stereoselective construction of such functionalized bicyclic 𝛾-lactones is not as straightforward as one might expect. The template-mediated Diels-Alder reaction is one of the most powerful and versatile methods for providing bicyclic 𝛾-lactones with high regioselectivity and stereoselectivity. In this reaction, the diene is linked to the dienophile by a temporary tether, allowing the reaction to proceed efficiently, yielding a product that can be used for natural product synthesis. This review describes some important instances of the template-mediated Diels-Alder reaction and its application to the synthesis of biologically active compounds.

Abstract
Vinigrol is a structurally and stereochemically complex diterpenoid that displays various potent pharmacological activities. Two generations of synthetic routes were designed and pursued based on a transannular Diels-Alder (TADA) cycloaddition strategy. An intramolecular [2 + 2]photocycloaddition in the presence of the chelating Lewis acid (MgBr2·Et2O) was first discovered to enable the reaction of sterically challenging substrates, which was followed by [2 + 2]cycloreversion to provide α-pyrones fused with a 10-membered ring. Eventually, a new and scalable synthetic route toward (-)-vinigrol was developed and provided over 600 mg materials, manifesting the power of macrocyclic stereocontrol and TADA reaction.

Abstract
A palladium catalyzed tandem reaction between ortho-functionalized aryl enones and 2,4-dienyl carbonates has been presented, proceeding through sequential 2,4-dienylation/Michael addition/π-σ-π isomerization/allylic alkylation. A broad array of enantioenriched architectures having fused and spirocyclic frameworks are constructed in moderate to excellent yields and stereoselectivity. Notably, the intrinsic intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction pattern of the dienylated intermediates is well reversed via Pd(0)-π-Lewis base catalysis.

Abstract
The first total synthesis of (+)-pedrolide, a tigliane-derived diterpenoid featuring an unprecedented 5-5-6-6-3 carbon skeleton, is reported. Key to the approach is the construction of the bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane core via an intramolecular cyclopentadiene-Diels-Alder cycloaddition. To this end, a norbornadiene serves as an effective surrogate for cyclopentadiene, which is unmasked under mild conditions involving a complex Diels-Alder reaction cascade. In addition, the synthesis provides a novel approach to a densely functionalized carane in an efficient and enantioselective manner.

Abstract
Majority of drugs act by interacting with chiral counterparts, e.g., proteins, and we are, unfortunately, well-aware of how chirality can negatively impact the outcome of a therapeutic regime. The number of chiral, non-racemic drugs on the market is increasing, and it is becoming ever more important to prepare these compounds in a safe, economic, and environmentally sustainable fashion. Asymmetric organocatalysis has a long history, but it began its renaissance era only during the first years of the millennium. Since then, this field has reached an extraordinary level, as confirmed by the awarding of the 2021 Chemistry Nobel Prize. In the present review, we wish to highlight the application of organocatalysis in the synthesis of enantio-enriched molecules that may be of interest to the pharmaceutical industry and the medicinal chemistry community. We aim to discuss the different activation modes observed for organocatalysts, examining, for each of them, the generally accepted mechanisms and the most important and developed reactions, that may be useful to medicinal chemists. For each of these types of organocatalytic activations, select examples from academic and industrial applications will be disclosed during the synthesis of drugs and natural products.

Abstract
The first enantioselective total synthesis of (+)-lucidumone is described through a 13-step synthetic pathway (longest linear sequence). The key steps involve the formation of a bridged bicyclic lactone by an enantioselective inverse-electron-demand Diels-Alder cycloaddition, C-O bond formation to assemble two fragments, and a one-pot retro-[4 + 2]/[4 + 2] cycloaddition cascade. The synthesis is scalable, and more than one gram of natural product was synthesized in one batch.

Abstract
Herein, we report an enantioselective and convergent total synthesis of (+)-pepluanol A, a structurally intriguing Euphorbia diterpenoid natural product featuring a 5/6/7/3-fused tetracyclic skeleton, from known building blocks in 11 steps. The successful strategy relies on a phenyl selenide-mediated Morita-Baylis-Hillman type reaction as a connective step, forging the precursor for the key intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction to construct the congested 5/6/7-tricyclic framework. A diastereoconvergent cascade starting with an acid-induced removal of the C1-MOM protecting group followed by a retro-aldol/aldol reaction resulted in the formation of a single diastereomer. This stereoconvergency allowed for the successful substrate-controlled diastereoselective cyclopropanation of an advanced intermediate to establish the full carboskeleton of (+)-pepluanol A (1).

Abstract
Elansolid A is a structurally complex polyketide macrolactone natural product that exhibits promising antibacterial properties. Its challenging asymmetric total synthesis was achieved by a convergent strategy, in which the tetrahydroindane core of the molecule and an eastern vinyl iodide moiety were combined as the main fragments. The central tetrahydroindane motif was constructed with high stereoselectivity by a bioinspired intramolecular Diels-Alder cycloaddition, generating four stereogenic centers in a single step. The stereocontrol of this key step could be achieved by virtue of a 1,3-allylic strain generated by the temporary introduction of a steric-directing iodine substituent on the substrate. The formation of the macrolactone motif that completes the synthesis was achieved via two different retrosynthetic disconnections, namely, a Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling or an alternative Mukaiyama esterification reaction.

Abstract
A series of 1,3-cyclodiketone- and tetrahydroepoxyisoindole-fused β-enamino dicarbonyl heterocycles were synthesized via a 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane-catalyzed, CH3NO2-mediated three-component reaction of 1,3-cyclodiketone, furfural, and allylamine in toluene. The target compounds were generated via the formation of β-enamino diketone as a key intermediate, followed by intramolecular Diels-Alder cycloaddition. The prepared molecules bearing a quinoline-2,4-dione moiety could be further brominated with N-bromosuccinimide and diastereoselectively reduced by NaBH4 to afford pyrano[3,2-c]quinolin-5-one-derived heterocycles with six vicinal stereogenic centers.

Natural product synthesis remains a field in which new synthetic methods and reagents are continually being evaluated. Due to the demanding structures and complex functionality of many natural products, only powerful and selective methods and reagents will be highlighted in this proceeding. Since its introduction by Henri Kagan, samarium(ii) iodide (SmI2, Kagan's reagent) has found increasing use in chemical synthesis. Over the years, many reviews have been published on the application of SmI2 in numerous reductive coupling procedures as well as in natural product total synthesis. This review highlights recent advances in SmI2-mediated synthetic strategies, as applied in the total synthesis of natural products since 2004. Natural product synthesis remains a field in which new synthetic methods and reagents are continually being evaluated.![]()

Abstract
Diels–Alder cycloaddition reaction is one of the most powerful strategies for the construction of six-membered carbocyclic and heterocyclic systems, in most cases with high regio- and stereoselectivity. In this review, an insight into the most relevant advances on sustainable Diels–Alder reactions since 2010 is provided. Various environmentally benign solvent systems are discussed, namely bio-based derived solvents (such as glycerol and gluconic acid), polyethylene glycol, deep eutectic solvents, supercritical carbon dioxide, water and water-based aqueous systems. Issues such as method’s scope, efficiency, selectivity and reaction mechanism, as well as sustainability, advantages and limitations of these reaction media, are addressed.

Inspired by the biogenetic proposal of an intramolecular Diels–Alder (IMDA) cycloaddition, the total synthesis of natural product nahuoic acid A, a cofactor-competitive inhibitor of the epigenetic enzyme lysine methyl transferase SETD8, has been carried out. A non-conjugated pentaenal precursor was synthesized with high levels of stereoselectivity at seven stereogenic centers and with the appropriate control of double bond geometries. Although the IMDA reaction of the non-conjugated pentaenal using Me2AlCl for catalysis at −40 °C selectively afforded the trans-fused diastereomer corresponding to the Re-endo mode of cycloaddition, under thermal reaction conditions it gave rise to a mixture of diastereomers, that preferentially formed through the exo mode, including the cis-fused angularly-methylated octahydronaphthalene diastereomer precursor of nahuoic acid A. The natural product could be obtained upon oxidation and overall deprotection of the hydroxyl groups present in the Si-exo IMDA diastereomer. The total synthesis of natural product nahuoic acid A, a cofactor-competitive inhibitor of the epigenetic enzyme lysine methyl transferase SETD8, has been carried out based on the biogenetic proposal of an intramolecular Diels–Alder (IMDA) cycloaddition.![]()

Abstract
Treatment of cis-fused bicyclic diene dicarboxylates with Li/naphthalene triggers a tandem ring-opening and transannular cyclization process that stereoselectively yields hydroazulenes and hydrindanes derivatives. Cyclononadienyl diesters, which can be isolated after the ring-opening step by judicious choice of the reaction conditions, undergo a tandem conjugate addition/intramolecular Michael addition upon treatment with chiral lithium amides to give bicyclic β-amino esters in a process where 4 contiguous stereocenters are formed with high diastereocontrol. A concise route toward the highly enantioenriched AEF ring core of the aconitine-type alkaloids has been developed as an application of this methodology. The starting cis-fused bicyclic dicarboxylates are easily prepared in one step by reductive alkylation of diisopropyl phthalate (Na/THF, followed by the appropriate bis-electrophiles).

Abstract
The advancement of click-functionalized hydrogels in recent years has coincided with rapid growth in the fields of mechanobiology, tissue engineering, and regenerative medicine. Click chemistries represent a group of reactions that possess high reactivity and specificity, are cytocompatible, and generally proceed under physiologic conditions. Most notably, the high level of tunability afforded by these reactions enables the design of user-controlled and tissue-mimicking hydrogels in which the influence of important physical and biochemical cues on normal and aberrant cellular behaviors can be independently assessed. Several critical tissue properties, including stiffness, viscoelasticity, and biomolecule presentation, are known to regulate cell mechanobiology in the context of development, wound repair, and disease. However, many questions still remain about how the individual and combined effects of these instructive properties regulate the cellular and molecular mechanisms governing physiologic and pathologic processes. In this review, we discuss several click chemistries that have been adopted to design dynamic and instructive hydrogels for mechanobiology investigations. We also chart a path forward for how click hydrogels can help reveal important insights about complex tissue microenvironments.

Abstract
The first asymmetric synthesis of pepluanol A (1) is presented. The synthesis route is very concise (10 steps) and features a Curtin-Hammett-driven stereoconvergent intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction. A Nozaki-Hiyama-Kishi reaction comprises the connective step, bringing together the seven-membered enone system bearing the dienophile and the diene in the side chain. Subsequent stereoconvergent IMDA reaction furnishes the carboskeleton of the natural product in only 7 steps. The reactions were carried out on a gram scale up to an advanced intermediate and including the stereoconvergent intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction.

Abstract
We report the cycloaddition reactions of 1-alkoxy-1-amino-1,3-butadienes. These doubly activated dienes are prepared on a multigram scale from crotonic acid chloride and its derivatives. The dienes undergo Diels-Alder (DA) and hetero-Diels-Alder (HDA) reactions under mild reaction conditions with a variety of electron-deficient dienophiles to afford cycloadducts in good yields with excellent regioselectivities. The hydrolysis of the DA cycloadducts provides 6-substituted and 6,6-disubstituted 2-cylohexenones, which are versatile building blocks for complex molecule synthesis. The corresponding HDA cycloadducts afford 6-substituted 5,6-dihydropyran-2-ones.

Abstract
In this study, we report on a DFT investigation of two intramolecular Diels-Alder furan reactions. Optimizations of the studied structures, TS and IRC calculations, were carried out at B3LYP/6-31G(d) level. We have studied the effect of substituent, solvent and Lewis acid catalyst on cyclization-retrocyclization equilibria, activation energies, and stability of the desired products. The analysis of orbital coefficients, IRC curves, and Wiberg indices have proved that both reactions are under orbital control. We have found that for the reaction I (2↔4 + 5), where R = H, the exo attack is favored by hydrogen bond interaction, while for R = t-Bu, the steric hindrance leads to the endo attack. For the reaction II (3 → 6 + 7), the t-Bu-substituted products are the most stable ones. At another level, we have found that it is recommended to use polar organic solvents as DMSO with Lewis acid catalyst BF3. The latest leads to accelerate the reaction II with stabilization of the desired products.

Abstract
AbstractThe development of the intramolecular Diels–Alder cycloaddition of azole heterocycles, i.e. oxazoles (IMDAO), imidazoles (IMDAI), and thiazoles (IMDAT), has had a significant impact on the efficient preparation of heterocyclic intermediates and natural products. In particular, highly efficient and versatile IMDAO reactions have been utilized as a key step in several synthetic schemes to provide alkaloids and terpenoid target molecules. More limited studies have been performed on IMDAI and IMDAT cycloadditions. Some drawbacks, such as the occasionally challenging preparation of IMDA precursors, are also highlighted in this review. Perspectives are provided on how IMDAI and IMDAT transformations can be further expanded for target-directed syntheses.1 Introduction2 Oxazoles2.1 IMDAO Approaches to Furanosesquiterpenes and Furanosteroids2.1.1 Syntheses of Highly Oxygenated Sesquiterpenes2.1.2 Syntheses of (±)-Gnididione and (±)-Isognididione2.1.3 Synthesis of (±)-Stemoamide2.1.4 Synthesis of (±)-Paniculide A2.1.5 Syntheses of (+)- and (–)-Norsecurinine2.1.6 Synthesis of Evodone2.1.7 Syntheses of (±)-Ligularone and (±)-Petasalbine2.1.8 Syntheses of Imerubrine, Isoimerubrine, and Grandirubrine2.1.9 Syntheses of Furanosteroids2.1.10 Syntheses of Substituted Indolines and Tetrahydroquinolines2.2 IMDAO Approaches to Pyridines: the Kondrat’eva Reaction2.2.1 Syntheses of Suaveoline and Norsuaveoline2.2.2 Synthesis of Eupolauramine2.2.3 Syntheses of (–)-Plectrodorine and (+)-Oxerine2.2.4 Synthesis of Amphimedine2.2.5 Synthetic Approach to the Western Segment of Haplophytine2.2.6 Synthesis of Marinoquinoline A2.2.6.1 IMDAO Approach to Marinoquinoline A2.2.6.2 Scope of Allenyl IMDAO Cycloaddition2.3 Lewis Acid Catalysis in IMDAO Reactions2.3.1 Effects of Europium Catalysts on IMDAO Reactions2.3.2 Effects of Copper Catalysts on IMDAO Reactions3 Imidazoles

Abstract
Type II intramolecular cycloadditions ([4+2], [4+3], [4+4] and [5+2]) have emerged recently as an efficient and powerful strategy for the construction of bridged ring systems. In general, type II cycloadditions provide access to a wide range of bridged bicyclo[m.n.1] ring systems with high regio- and diastereoselectivity in an easy and straightforward manner. In each section of this review, an overview of the corresponding type II cycloadditions is presented, which is followed by highlights of method development and synthetic applications in natural product synthesis. The goal of this review is to provide a survey of recent advances in the field covering literature up to 2020. The review will serve as a useful reference for organic chemists engaged in the total synthesis of natural products containing bridged bicyclo[m.n.1] ring systems and provide strong stimulus for invention and further advances in this exciting research field.

Abstract
Dess-Martin periodinane (DMP), a commercially available chemical, is frequently utilized as a mild oxidative agent for the selective oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols to their corresponding aldehydes and ketones, respectively. DMP shows several merits over other common oxidative agents such as chromiumand DMSO-based oxidants; thus, it is habitually employed in the total synthesis of natural products. In this review, we try to underscore the applications of DMP as an effective oxidant in an appropriate step (steps) in the multi-step total synthesis of natural products.

Abstract
The reductive coupling of an N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) stabilized (dibromo)vinylborane yields a 1,2-divinyldiborene, which, although isoelectronic to a 1,3,5-triene, displays no extended π conjugation because of twisting of the C2 B2 C2 chain. While this divinyldiborene coordinates to copper(I) and platinum(0) in an η2 -B2 and η4 -C2 B2 fashion, respectively, it undergoes a complex rearrangement to an η4 -1,3-diborete upon complexation with nickel(0).

Abstract
Electrochemistry provides a valuable toolbox for organic synthesis and offers an appealing, environmentally benign alternative to the use of stoichiometric quantities of chemical oxidants or reductants. Its potential to control current efficiency along with providing alternative reaction conditions in a classical sense makes electrochemistry a suitable method for large-scale industrial transformations as well as for laboratory applications in the synthesis of complex molecular architectures. Even though research in this field has intensified over the recent decades, many synthetic chemists still hesitate to add electroorganic reactions to their standard repertoire, and hence, the full potential of preparative organic electrochemistry has not yet been unleashed. This short review highlights the versatility of anodic transformations by summarizing their application in natural product synthesis.1 Introduction2 Shono-Type Oxidation3 C–N/N–N Bond Formation4 Aryl–Alkene/Aryl–Aryl Coupling5 Cycloadditions Triggered by Oxidation of Electron-Rich Arenes6 Spirocycles7 Miscellaneous Transformations8 Future Prospects

Abstract
Natural products containing eight-membered carbocycles constitute a class of structurally intriguing and biologically important molecules such as the famous diterpenes taxol and vinigrol. Such natural products are being increasingly investigated because of their fascinating architectural features and potent medicinal properties. However, synthesis of natural products with cyclooctane moieties has proved to be highly challenging. This review highlights the recently completed total syntheses of natural products with eight-membered carbocycles with a focus on strategic considerations. A collection of 27 representative studies from the literature covering the decade from 2009 to 2019 is described in chronological order with relevant studies grouped together, including syntheses of the same natural product by different research groups using different strategies. Finally, a summary and outlook including a discussion of the major features of each strategy used in the syntheses are presented. This review illustrates the diversity and creativity in the elegant synthetic designs of eight-membered carbocycles. We hope this review will provide timely illumination and beneficial guidance for future synthetic efforts for organic chemists who are interested in this area.

Abstract
The Wittig reaction is the chemical reaction of an aldehyde or ketone with a triphenyl phosphonium ylide (the Wittig reagent) to afford an alkene and triphenylphosphine oxide. Noteworthy, this reaction results in the synthesis of alkenes in a selective and predictable fashion. Thus, it became as one of the keystone of synthetic organic chemistry, especially in the total synthesis of natural products, where the selectivity of a reaction is paramount of importance. A literature survey disclosed the existence of vast numbers of related reports and comprehensive reviews on the applications of this important name reaction in the total synthesis of natural products. However, the aim of this chapter is to underscore, the applications of the Wittig reaction in the total synthesis of one the most important and prevalent classes of natural products, the alkaloids, especially those showing important and diverse biological activities.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Alkynes are actually basic chemicals, serving as privileged synthons for planning new organic reactions for assemblage of a reactive motif, which easily undergoes a further desirable transformation. Name reactions, in organic chemistry are referred to those reactions which are well-recognized and reached to such status for being called as their explorers, discoverers or developers. Alkynes have been used in various name reactions. In this review, we try to underscore the applications of alkynes as privileged synthons in prevalent name reactions such as Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddtion via Click reaction, Sonogashira reaction, and Hetero Diels-Alder reaction. OBJECTIVE In this review, we try to underscore the applications of alkynes as privileged synthons in the formation of heterocycles, focused on the selected reactions of alkynes as a synthon or impending utilization in synthetic organic chemistry, which have reached such high status for being included in the list of name reactions in organic chemistry. CONCLUSION Alkynes (including acetylene) are an unsaturated hydrocarbon bearing one or more triple C-C bond. Remarkably, alkynes and their derivatives are frequently being used as molecular scaffolds for planning new organic reactions and installing reactive functional group for further reaction. It is worth mentioning that in general, the terminal alkynes are more useful and more frequently being used in the art of organic synthesis. Remarkably, alkynes have found different applications in pharmacology, nanotechnology, as well as being known as appropriate starting precursors for the total synthesis of natural products and biologically active complex compounds. They are predominantly applied in various name reactions such as Sonogashira, Glaser reaction, Friedel-crafts reaction, Castro-Stephens coupling, Huisgen 1.3-dipolar cycloaddtion reaction via Click reaction, Sonogashira reaction, hetero-Diels-Alder reaction. In this review, we tried to impress the readers by presenting selected name reactions, which use the alkynes as either stating materials or precursors. We disclosed the applications of alkynes as a privileged synthons in several popular reactions, which reached to such high status being classified as name reactions. They are thriving and well known and established name reactions in organic chemistry such as Regioselective, 1,3-dipolar Huisgen cycloaddtion reaction via Click reaction, Sonogashira reaction and Diels-Alder reaction.

Abstract
:
C-N bond formation reactions are the most important transformations in
(bio)organic chemistry because of the widespread occurrence of amines in pharmaceuticals,
natural products, and biologically active compounds. The Hofmann rearrangement is
a well-known method used for the preparation of primary amines from amides. But, the
traditional version of the Hofmann rearrangement often gave relatively poor yields due to
over-oxidation or due to the poor solubility of some amides in aqueous base, and created
an enormous amount of waste products. Developments over the last two decades, in particular,
have focused on refining both of these factors affecting the reaction. This review
covers both the description of recent advances (2000-2019) in the Hofmann
rearrangements and its applications in the synthesis of heterocycles, natural products and
complex molecules of biological interest. It is revealed that organo-catalytic systems especially hypervalent
iodine-based catalysts have been developed for the green and environmentally friendly conversion of
carboxamides to primary amines and carbamates.

Abstract
Recently, the identity of the marine hydrindane natural product (−)-mucosin was revised to the trans-fused structure 6, thereby providing a biogenetic puzzle that remains to be solved. We are now disseminating some of our insights with regard to the possible machinery delivering the established architecture. Aspects with regard to various modes of cyclization in terms of concerted versus stepwise processes are held up against the enzymatic apparatus known to be working on arachidonic acid (8). To provide a contrast to the tentative polyunsaturated fatty acid biogenesis, the structural pattern featured in (−)-mucosin (6) is compared to some marine hydrinane natural products of professed polyketide descent. Our appraisal points to a different origin and strengthens the hypothesis of a polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) as the progenitor of (−)-mucosin (6).

Abstract
An originally designed Rh-catalyzed [4 + 2] cycloaddition reaction of nitrogen-tethered 1,7-ene-dienes turned out to be a cycloisomerization reaction, which involves allylic C-H activation/alkene insertion into Rh-H bond/reductive elimination processes. Deuterium labeling experiments gave support to the proposed mechanism. This unexpected cycloisomerization reaction provides an efficient way to synthesize trans-divinylpiperidines from easily accessed linear 1,7-ene-dienes.

Abstract
One of the most important name reactions in organic chemistry, is the Diels-Alder cycloaddition reaction. It is a chemical reaction between a conjugated diene and a substituted alkene, commonly termed the dienophile to construct a substituted cyclohexene derivative. It is the stereotypical example of a pericyclic reaction with a concerted mechanism. In synthesis, the use of electricity instead of stoichiometric amounts of oxidant or reducing agents is definitely appealing for economic, ecological and selective, reasons. In this review, we try to underscore the combination of the electrosynthesis with Diels-Alder cycloaddition reaction to establish of a powerful synthetic tool which may encourage synthetic organic chemists to use it in the future.

Abstract
An efficient protocol providing easy access to highly functionalized heterocyclic compounds as novel organic building blocks was developed by coupling alkyl pyrazole-, indazole- and indolecarboxylates with N-Boc-3-iodoazetidine. The synthesized compounds are representatives of constrained non-chiral synthetic azole carboxylates in their N-Boc protected ester forms. Diversification of the prepared heterocyclic building blocks was achieved via application of palladium-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions. In total, 34 building blocks were obtained to form a highly diversified small molecule collection. The structure of the novel heterocyclic compounds was investigated and verified by advanced NMR spectroscopy methods.
