A Diastereocontrolled Synthesis of (+)-Febrifugine: A Potent Antimalarial Piperidine Alkaloid

TL;DR: A diastereocontrolled synthesis of (+)-febrifugine, a potent antimalarial piperidine alkaloid, has been achieved using a chiral block having a bicyclo[3.2.1]octane framework which exhibits inherent convex-face selectivity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Extremely Facile and Selective Nickel‐Catalyzed Allyl Ether Cleavage

TL;DR: Child's play!
Journal ArticleDOI

Preparation of olefins and acetylenes via reductive elimination with SmI2-HMPA

TL;DR: In this article, the reaction of β-hydroxy or acetoxy sulfones with Sml2 in the presence of HMPA caused effectively reductive elimination to provide olefins.
Journal ArticleDOI

7,7-Dimethyl-6,8-dioxabicyclo[3.3.0]oct-3-en-2-one as a synthetic equivalent of ketodicyclopentadiene: a new route to (−)-physostigmine, (−)-physovenine, and (−)-aphanorphine

TL;DR: In this paper, a diastereocontrolled route to three alkaloids having a quaternary benzylic stereogenic center was developed using enantiopure 7,7-dimethyl-6,8-dioxabicyclo[3.3.0] oct-3-en-2-one as a synthetic equivalent of chiral cyclopentadienone.
