[structure: see text] The stereocontrolled synthesis of pyridooxazinones by Mg(OTf)2-promoted epoxide ring-opening with use of chiral pipecolates as nucleophiles is described. Pyridooxazinone products derived from azido-epoxides can be further rearranged to seven-membered pyridodiazepinones by azide reduction. The sequence of functional group interconversions generates diversity through topological and stereochemical variation.

The cascade aza-Prins/Friedel-Crafts reaction of homocinnamyloxycarbamate with electron-rich aromatic aldehydes has been successfully established. Most of the aromatic aldehydes react with the carbamate stereoselectively to generate -hydroindeno-1,2-oxazinanes. However, the cascade reactions of benzaldehydes bearing two methoxy groups at the -positions exhibit a unique stereochemical profile.

A concise, bioinspired, and enantioselective synthesis of (-)-hunterine A, an odd 6/7/6/6/5 pentacyclic natural product, is described. The key step in the synthesis of this complex structure is an interim-template directed 6-exo selective epoxide ring-opening reaction, which is interwoven with a hydrolysis step of the indolenine hemiaminal template to create the unusual 7-membered azepine bridge motif. Our work not only refines the previously proposed biogenetic pathway, but also reveals the possible stereochemical prerequisite of the unique skeletal rearrangement, which provides a vantage point for understanding how (-)-hunterine A is likely to be generated in nature.

Stereochemical and skeletal complexity are particularly important vis-à-vis the cross-talks between a small molecule and a complementary active site of a biological target. This intricate harmony is known to increase selectivity, reduce toxicity, and increase the success rate in clinical trials. Therefore, the development of novel strategies for establishing underrepresented chemical space that is rich in stereochemical and skeletal diversity is an important milestone in a drug discovery campaign.
