Journal ArticleDOI
Biomimetic total synthesis of (+)-gelsemine.
TL;DR: This synthesis using the enol-oxonium cyclization reaction as a key step to make the cage structure has demonstrated the proposed biosynthetic pathway of the gelsemine family.
Journal ArticleDOI
Regioselective synthesis of heterocycles containing nitrogen neighboring an aromatic ring by reductive ring expansion using diisobutylaluminum hydride and studies on the reaction mechanism
TL;DR: It was found that the more electron-rich group migrated preferentially to give the corresponding secondary amines in the reductive ring-expansion reaction of cyclic ketoximes fused to aromatic rings with diisobutylaluminum hydride.
Journal ArticleDOI
Concise total synthesis of (-)-mersicarpine.
TL;DR: A concise total synthesis of (-)-mersicarpine from a known cyclohexanone was accomplished and the azepinoindole core was constructed by a DIBAL-H-mediated reductive ring-expansion reaction of oxime.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enantiocontrolled Total Synthesis of (−)‐Mersicarpine
TL;DR: With these methodologies, the short-step and efficient synthesis of (-)-mersicarpine was accomplished and the characteristic azepinoindole skeleton in good yield was constructed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Regiospecific synthesis of unsubstituted basic skeletons of heterocycles containing nitrogen neighboring an aromatic ring by the reductive ring expansion reaction using diisobutylaluminum hydride
TL;DR: In this article, a systematic investigation of reductive ring expansion reaction of oximes with diisobutylaluminum hydride (DIBAH) was performed, which regiospecifically provided a variety of unsubstituted bicyclic heterocycles 3a-3g or tricyclic HetNets 3h, 3j-31 that contained nitrogen attached to an aromatic ring.
