[reaction: see text] A variety of substituted azabicyclo[n.1.0]alkanes were synthesized by intramolecular titanium-mediated cyclopropanation of N-benzyl-N-(2-alkylalk-3-enyl)formamides and N-benzyl-N-alkadienylformamides. N-Benzylpyrroline upon treatment with Grignard reagents undergoes a titanium-mediated carbomagnesiation to yield N-benzyl-N-(2-alkylbut-3-enyl)amines.

Total Synthesis of Ganoapplanin Enabled by a Radical Addition/Aldol Reaction Cascade.

Department of Organic Chemistry and Center for Molecular Biosciences, University of Innsbruck, 6020 Innsbruck, Austria.
The total synthesis of the meroterpenoid ganoapplanin, an inhibitor of T-type voltage-gated calcium channels, is reported. Our synthetic approach is based on the convergent coupling of a readily available aromatic polyketide scaffold with a bicyclic terpenoid fragment. The three contiguous stereocenters of the terpenoid fragment, two of which are quaternary, were constructed by a diastereoselective, titanium-mediated iodolactonization.

An asymmetric total synthesis of the sarpagine alkaloid (-)-normacusine B is presented. Salient features of this synthesis include a photocatalytic nitrogen-centered radical cascade reaction to assemble the tetrahydrocarbolinone skeleton, a titanium-mediated intramolecular amide-alkene coupling to construct the bridged azabicyclo[3.3.

A total synthesis of (+)-herboxidiene/GEX 1A has been accomplished from (R)- and (S)-lactate esters in a highly efficient manner. Key steps of the synthesis involve substrate-controlled titanium-mediated aldol reactions from chiral lactate-derived ethyl ketones, an oxa-Michael cyclization, an Ireland-Claisen rearrangement, and a Suzuki coupling. Furthermore, computational studies of the oxa-Michael reaction have unveiled the dramatic influence of intramolecular hydrogen bonds on the stereochemical outcome of such cyclizations, whereas biological analyses have clearly proved the important cytoxicity of (+)-herboxidiene/GEX 1A.

A convergent coupling reaction is described that enables the stereoselective construction of angularly substituted trans-fused decalins from acyclic precursors. The process builds on our alkoxide-directed titanium-mediated alkyne-alkyne coupling and employs a 1,7-enyne coupling partner. Overall, the reaction is thought to proceed through initial formation of a tetrasusbstituted metallacyclopentadiene, stereoselective intramolecular [4+2] cycloaddition, elimination, isomerization, and regio- and stereoselective protonation.

Bridged bicyclic metallacyclopentenes generated from the [4 + 2] cycloaddition of metallacyclopentadienes with alkenes have been proposed as reactive intermediates in the course of [2 + 2 + 2] annulation reactions. Recently a collection of alkoxide-directed Ti-mediated [2 + 2 + 2] annulation reactions have been discovered for the synthesis of densely functionalized hydrindanes, where the bridged bicyclic metallacyclopentenes from intramolecular [4 + 2] were treated as fleeting intermediates en route to cyclohexadiene products formed by formal cheletropic extrusion of Ti(Oi-Pr)2. In studies aimed at understanding the course of these organometallic cascade reactions it was later discovered that these bridged bicyclic intermediates can be trapped by various elimination processes.
