Abstract
Efforts in our laboratories to devise a general approach to the synthesis of alkaloids focus on the versatile reactivity of enaminones and related compounds containing the structural unit N-CaC-Z (Za COR, CO2R, CN, NO2 ,S O 2Ar, etc.). This lecture presents an overview of our research with these useful building blocks. Themes to be elaborated include chemo- selectivity and diastereoselectivity in reactions of enaminones, and the challenge of controlling absolute stereochemistry.

Demethylative Lactonization Provides a Shortcut to High-Yielding Syntheses of Lamellarins.

TL;DR: A novel demethylative lactonization between an aryl methyl ether and a neighbouring carboxylic acid was developed for creating the chromenone unit of the targets in order to avoid the need for additional protection and deprotection steps.
