Syntheses of dictyodendrins A and F have been achieved using a sequential C-H functionalization strategy. The N-alkylpyrrole core is fully functionalized by means of a rhodium(I)-catalyzed C-H arylation at the C3-position, a rhodium(II)-catalyzed double C-H insertion at the C2- and C5-positions, and a Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction at the C4-position. The syntheses of dictyodendrins A and F were completed by formal 6π-electrocyclization to generate the pyrrolo[2,3-c]carbazole core of the natural products.

In total and formal syntheses of dictyodendrins A, B, C, D, E and F, the key step involved the direct construction of the pyrrolo[2,3-c]carbazole core by the gold-catalyzed annulation of a conjugated diyne with a pyrrole to form three bonds and two aromatic rings. The subsequent introduction of substituents at the C1 (Suzuki-Miyaura coupling), C2 (acylation), N3 (alkylation) and C5 positions (Ullmann coupling) provided divergent access to dictyodendrins. Some dictyodendrin analogues exhibited inhibitory activities toward CDK2/CycA2 and GSK3.

A unified modular synthetic strategy has been developed for the first total synthesis of dictyodendrins G and synthesis of dictyodendrin F, H and I in 11 steps. The synthesis features consecutive functionalization of the core aminoquinone by palladium-mediated Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction, 1,4-addition, acylation and base mediated formation of a pyrrolinone, and the formation of carbazolequinone moiety through a formal [3 + 2] cycloaddition using arynes generated in situ. Several dictyodendrin analogues were also synthesized using this strategy.

Covering: 1993-2017This review discusses the isolation, biological activity, and syntheses of the dictyodendrin class of natural products, covering the years 1993-2017. The dictyodendrins are a family of alkaloids isolated from marine sponges, Dictyodendrilla verongiformis and Ianthella sp., which possess a highly substituted pyrrolo[2,3-c]carbazole core at the phenol or quinone oxidation states.

We report a concise total synthesis of dictyodendrin F and the first total syntheses of dictyodendrins H and I in six steps. In these syntheses, aryl ynol ethers were employed as the key building blocks to introduce aryl and heteroaryl rings in the dictyodendrins. This rapid synthesis utilized a novel hetero-[2 + 2]-cycloaddition reaction between two aryl ynol ethers to yield a cyclobutenone ring.
