A Divergent Polyene Cyclization for the Total Synthesis of Greenwayodendrines, Greenwaylactams, Polysin and Polyveoline.


ABSTRACT: We present a concise asymmetric total synthesis (5-8 steps) of nine sesquiterpenoid alkaloids featuring four different tetra-/pentacyclic scaffolds. To this end, a novel, bioinspired indole N-terminated cationic tricyclization has been developed, enabling the divergent synthesis of greenwayodendrines and polysin. Subtle variation of the C2-substituted indole cyclization precursor allowed switching between indole N- and C-termination. For the latter, a subsequent Witkop oxidation enabled conversion of the cyclopentene-fused indole into the eight-membered benzolactam to directly furnish the family of greenwaylactams. In addition, a diastereomeric C-termination product has been elaborated to provide access to polyveoline.
