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.

The successful implementation of a cascade reaction involving a cyclobutyl unit has posed a significant challenge in achieving ring-retentive functionalization because of the ring's sacrificial tendency. Herein, we have accomplished a cinchona-derived squaramide-catalyzed cascade reaction sequence, encompassing the desymmetrization of cyclobutanone, followed by an aldol reaction and, subsequently, a 1,4-addition step. This overall process offers a viable strategy to access architecturally fascinating oxa-spirocycles fused with cyclobutanone motifs in good yields with high optical purity.

New formyl indole derivatives based on thiobarbituric acid were designed for targeting parasitological applications. The new compounds (5-((1H-indol-3-yl)methylene)-2-thioxodihydropyrimidine-4,6(1H,5H)-dione (3a), and 5-((1-benzyl-1H-indol-3-yl)methylene)-2-thioxodihydropyrimidine-4,6(1H,5H)-dione (3b) were synthesized as thioxodihydropyrimidine derivatives via aldol condensation reaction. The structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed based on their spectral data via FT-IR, H and C NMR spectral characterization.
