Article Abstract

We present a concise asymmetric total synthesis (5-8 steps) of nine sesquiterpenoid alkaloids featuring four different tetra-/pentacyclic scaffolds. To this end, a novel, bioinspired indole N-terminated cationic tricyclization has been developed, enabling the divergent synthesis of greenwayodendrines and polysin. Subtle variation of the C2-substituted indole cyclization precursor allowed switching between indole N- and C-termination. For the latter, a subsequent Witkop oxidation enabled conversion of the cyclopentene-fused indole into the eight-membered benzolactam to directly furnish the family of greenwaylactams. In addition, a diastereomeric C-termination product has been elaborated to provide access to polyveoline.

Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by a germline pathogenic variant in the MEN1 tumor suppressor gene. Patients with MEN1 have a high risk for primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) with a penetrance of nearly 100%, pituitary adenomas (PitAd) in 40% of patients, and neuroendocrine neoplasms (NEN) of the pancreas (40% of patients), duodenum, lung, and thymus. Increased MEN1-related mortality is mainly related to duodenal-pancreatic and thymic NEN.
