Published: December 2021

Herein, we describe a concise total synthesis of dalesconol A through a "polycyclization/oxidation" approach. In the polycyclization stage, a Pd(0)/NBE-catalyzed 3-fold domino reaction and a subsequent intramolecular Michael addition have been utilized for the one-step assembly of the heptacyclic molecular skeleton. In the late stage of oxidation state adjustments, a stepwise sequence including site-selective benzylic oxidation, Pd(II)-catalyzed oxime ether directed trihydroxylation, and desaturation has been adopted to introduce the oxygen functionalities and furnish the synthesis of dalesconol A. With the advantage of the late-stage amidation of three C-H bonds in a single step, the amino analogue of dalesconol A has also been obtained with high efficiency.

Shenzhen Grubbs Institute and Department of Chemistry, Guangdong Provincial Key Laboratory of Catalysis, Southern University of Science and Technology, Shenzhen 518055, China.

Covering: 2010 to 2020Benzocycloheptane is a fundamental and unique structural motif found in pharmaceuticals and natural products. The total syntheses of natural products bearing the benzocycloheptane subunit are challenging and there are only a few efficient approaches to access benzocycloheptane. Thus, new methods and innovative strategies for preparing such natural products need to be developed.

Dalesconols (dalesconols A and B) were isolated from Daldinia eschscholzii and have remarkable immunosuppressive activity. In this study, the response of fungal growth, intra- and extracellular Ca, and dalesconols production after CaCl addition were reported for the first time. After supplementation with 5 mM Ca at 24 h, dalesconols production reached 84.
