N-N dimeric indolosesquiterpene alkaloids constitute a class of under-investigated architecturally intriguing natural products. Herein, we report the first chemical oxidation approach to the asymmetric total syntheses of these atropisomeric indolosesquiterpenoids through N-N bond formation. Specifically, dixiamycins A (1a) and B (1b) were prepared through a Cu(i)-mediated aerobic dehydrogenative dimerization from the naturally occurring monomer xiamycin A methyl ester (2b); this preparation also represents the first total synthesis of dixiamycin A (1a). The monomer xiamycin A methyl ester (2b) was synthesized a late-stage Buchwald Pd(ii)-mediated aerobic dehydrogenative C-N bond formation.

ConspectusThe advancement of synthetic methodologies is fundamentally driven by a deeper understanding of the structure-reactivity relationships of reactive key intermediates. Carbyne anions are compounds featuring a monovalent anionic carbon possessing four nonbonding valence electrons, which were historically confined to theoretical constructs or observed solely within the environment of gas-phase studies. These species possess potential for applications across diverse domains of synthetic chemistry and ancillary fields.

The chemokine XC motif chemokine ligand 1 (XCL1) is an unusually specialized member of a conserved family of around 50 small, secreted proteins that are best known for their ability to stimulate the directional migration of cells. All chemokines adopt a very similar folded structure that binds a specific G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), and most chemokines bind extracellular matrix glycosaminoglycans, often in a dimeric or oligomeric form. Owing in part to the lack of a disulfide bond that is conserved in all other chemokines, XCL1 interconverts between two distinct structures with distinct functions.

Dynamic covalent polymer networks (DCPN) provide an important solution to the challenging recyclability of thermoset elastomers. However, dynamic bonds exhibit relatively weak bond energies, considerably decreasing the mechanical properties of DCPN. Herein, a novel reinforcement strategy for DCPN involving the in situ formation of supramolecular organic nanofillers through asynchronous polymerization is proposed.

The design of solid-state materials requests a thorough understanding of the structural preferences among plausible structure models. Since the bond energy contributes to the formation energy of a given structure model, it also is decisive to determine the nature of chemical bonding for a given material. In this context, we were motivated to explore the correlation between chemical bonding and structural distortions within the low-dimensional tellurium fragments in TbCuTe.
