A new synthetic route to clavilactone B, a naturally occurring inhibitor of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase, is disclosed. The route features a sequential samarium-mediated radical cyclization-fragmentation of an indanone derivative, which provides rapid access to a 10-membered carbocyclic motif fused to an aromatic ring.

Cascade Vinyl Radical Ipso-Cyclization Reactions and the Formation of α,β-Unsaturated-β-aryl-γ-lactams from -Propargyl Benzamides.

Various -(2-bromo-allyl) benzamides were used as the starting materials to study vinyl radical cyclization reactions. The vinyl radicals underwent ipso-cyclization, fragmentation, and cyclization reactions to produce β-aryl-γ-lactams with the carbonyl group remaining intact. To further study this cascade radical reaction, vinyl radicals were generated by the addition of a tributyltin radical to alkyne moieties, followed by radical ipso-cyclization, fragmentation, cyclization, and β-scission reactions with the production of a series of α,β-unsaturated-β-aryl-γ-lactam derivatives.

The synthesis of symmetrical 3,3'-bisoxindoles from simple acyclic β-oxoanilides is reported. The described method forges three new C-C bonds in a single step via a sequential Mn(OAc)2HO mediated oxidative radical cyclization-fragmentation-dimerization process. The scope of this reaction is demonstrated in the preparation of a variety of 3,3'-bisoxindoles, as well as its application toward the formal synthesis of the Calycanthaceae alkaloid, (±)-folicanthine.

The [6,5,5] tricyclic fungal metabolite galiellalactone is a Michael acceptor that has been demonstrated to be a covalent inhibitor for Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 3 (STAT3). Recognizing the ring strain associated with the skeleton of this natural product, we utilized 1R-5S-bicyclo[3.1.

The first total synthesis of a chromodorolide marine diterpenoid is described. The core of the diterpenoid is constructed by a bimolecular radical addition/cyclization/fragmentation cascade that unites two complex fragments and forms two C-C bonds and four contiguous stereogenic centers of (-)-chromodorolide B in a single step. This coupling step is initiated by visible-light photocatalytic fragmentation of a redox-active ester, which can be accomplished in the presence of an iridium or a less-precious electron-rich dicyanobenzene photocatalyst, and employs equimolar amounts of the two addends.
