Diastereoselective Total Synthesis of Raputindole A
Kock, Mario,Lindel, Thomas
, p. 5444 - 5447 (2018)
The first diastereoselective total synthesis of the bisindole alkaloid raputindole A is reported. After Au(I)-catalyzed assembly of the cyclopenta[f]indole tricycle, it was possible to hydrogenate the indene double bond regio- A nd diastereoselectively through iridium catalysis, guided by a preinstalled hydroxy function. Attempted HWE reaction led to formal elimination of formaldehyde from an α-quaternary cyclopentane carbaldehyde, which was circumvented by Takai olefination. After Suzuki-Miyaura cross coupling and deprotection/oxidation, (±)-raputindole A was obtained in 13 linear steps in 18% overall yield.
Total Synthesis and Absolute Configuration of Raputindole A
Kock, Mario,Jones, Peter G.,Lindel, Thomas
, p. 6296 - 6299 (2017)
The first total synthesis of the bisindole alkaloid raputindole A from the rutaceous plant Raputia simulans is reported. The key step is a Au(I)-catalyzed cyclization that assembles the cyclopenta[f]indole tricycle from a 6-alkynylated indoline precursor. The isobutenyl side chain was installed by Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling, followed by a regioselective reduction employing LiDBB. Starting from 6-iodoindole, the sequence needs nine steps and provided (±)-raputindole A in 6.6% overall yield. The absolute configuration of the natural product (+)-raputindole A was determined by quantum chemical calculation of the ECD spectrum.
Synthesis of Pyranocyclopentaindolines Representing the Western Sections of Janthitrem B, JBIR-137, and Shearinine G

The synthesis of the ABCD tetracyclic partial structures of the fungal indole diterpenes janthitrem B, JBIR-137, and shearinine G is reported. The route starts from 5-formylated indoline that is coupled to a dihydropyran moiety, followed by Prins cyclization. A diene was obtained that was oxygenated in a divergent manner. The hydroxylated tetracyclic western half of janthitrem B was obtained in eight steps and 10 % overall yield. We also share our experience with alternative approaches passing via alkynylated precursors. This includes the gold-catalyzed cycloisomerization of a 6-ethynyl-5-prenylindoline.
