Rhodium vinylidene intermediates are characteristic for the title reaction (see scheme; coe=cyclooctene, cy=cyclohexyl). This reaction proceeds by the nucleophilic addition of the nitrogen atom of the imine to the rhodium vinylidene complex to give a zwitterionic intermediate, which undergoes intramolecular cyclization to afford the corresponding pyrrole.

Disclosed are new polycyclic carbogenic molecules and their methods of synthesis. The new polycyclic carbogenic molecules may be utilized in anti-cancer therapies. In particular, the polycyclic carbogenic molecules may be formulated as pharmaceutical compositions that comprise the small molecules, which compositions may be administered in methods of treating and/or preventing cell proliferative diseases and disorders such as cancer. The new polycyclic carbogenic molecules may be prepared from vinyl- or allyl-substituted cyclohexenone precursors via preparation of a silyl bis-enol ether intermediate.

The stereoselective oxidative coupling of cyclic ketones via silyl bis-enol ethers followed by ring-closing metathesis is shown to be a general and powerful reaction sequence for the preparation of diverse polycyclic scaffolds from simple precursors. The modular strategy successfully constructs substructures prevalent in numerous bioactive natural product families, varying in substitution and carbocyclic
Aconitum hemsleyanum, is a non-alkaloidal diterpene which possesses a unique pentacyclic skeleton that contains an unprecedented tetracyclo[5.3.3.04,9.04,12]tridecane unit. We report herein the formaltotalsynthesis of atropurpuran. The key features of our synthetic route are a high diastereoselective construction of the tri- and tetrasubstituted carbons (i.e., C4, C5, C10, and C20) through an Yb-catalyzed
