Published: March 2012

Trigonoliimine B, a hexacyclic alkaloid, is synthesized in seven steps from simple starting materials. The synthesis features the use of an α-isocyanoacetate as a glycine template for the preparation of an α,α-disubstituted α-amino ester that is appropriately functionalized for the construction of C, D, and E rings. Sulfolane was found to be the solvent of choice for the unprecedented Bischler-Napieralski reaction implemented for the construction of a seven-membered ring with concurrent formation of an exo-imine function.

Since antiquity, alkaloid natural products have served as medicinal ingredients that still contribute as an inspiration for the development of novel therapeutics. For the synthetic chemist, much of the importance of natural products lies in their acting as a forcing-function for the invention of new synthetic strategies and tactics for molecular assembly. With this rich history in mind, it remains an important goal for chemists to build nitrogenous structures with greater efficiency, abiding by economies of synthesis.

A modular approach was developed for the first catalytic asymmetric total syntheses of naturally occurring C30 terpene quinone methides and their non-natural stereoisomers, which feature the presence of an unprecedented spiro[4.4]nonane-containing 6-6-6-5-5-3 hexacyclic skeleton. Resting on a chiral phosphinamide-catalyzed enantioselective reduction of 2,2-disubstituted cyclohexane-1,3-dione, a concise route for the synthesis of enantioenriched 6-6 bicyclic fragment was developed.

Article Synopsis
  • Many medical curricula lack sufficient nutrition education, which is crucial for health outcomes.
  • A new online nutrition module was developed and tested on 15 medical students, showing a significant increase in knowledge from pre-assessment to post-assessment.
  • The module was effective in teaching essential nutrition topics and demonstrated that students retained most of the information even two months later.
