Practical and efficient approach to the synthesis of guineensine

TLDR
A total synthesis of guineensine, a secondary metabolite of the Piperaceae family, has been executed in 12 steps with an overall yield of 27% and featured novel application of a Julia–Kocienski olefination reaction which effectively constructed alkenamide skeleton.

Studies directed towards the total synthesis of koshikalide: stereoselective synthesis of the macrocyclic core

TL;DR: In this article, the synthesis of the macrolactone core of koshikalide is described, starting with readily available 1,4-butanediol and malic acid as synthons, their synthetic strategy involved the reiterative application of Gilman's reaction, Swern oxidation and Sharpless asymmetric epoxidation to establish the required stereocentres.

Novel malyngamide structural analogs: synthesis and biological evaluation

TL;DR: In this paper, a series of novel malyngamide derivatives were synthesized by sharpless asymmetric epoxidation, followed by Julia-Kocinski olefination reactions as key reaction sequence.

Total Synthesis of the Endocannabinoid Uptake Inhibitor Guineensine and SAR Studies

TL;DR: A highly efficient total synthesis of guineensine is established, which provided the natural product in only five steps from commercially available 3‐nonyn‐1‐ol in 17 % overall yield, relying on the attachment of the benzodioxolyl moiety to the unsaturated fatty acid chain by means of a Suzuki coupling as the key step.

A direct synthesis of olefins by reaction of carbonyl compounds with lithio derivatives of 2-[alkyl- or (2'-alkenyl)- or benzyl-sulfonyl]-benzothiazoles

TL;DR: In this article, the lithium alkoxides formed as intermediates undergo an intramolecular addition to the neighboring CN group followed by an S to 0 benzothiazole transfer and simultaneous extrustion of sulfur dioxide and ejection of 2(3H)-benzothiazolone anion.

Prostaglandins and congeners. 20. Synthesis of prostaglandins via conjugate addition of lithium trans-1-alkenyltrialkylalanate reagents. A novel reagent for conjugate 1,4-additions

TL;DR: The procedure employed was exactly as previously described as discussed by the authors, and all cases the alcohols isolated were identical with the known compounds by TLC, which are included here for those compounds where they are not in the literature.
