The total synthesis of three diastereomeric matrine natural products is reported. 8-step commences with simple acyclic precursors, forms all 4 rings the tetracyclic product framework, and forges 10 20 covalent bonds target structure. A cross-conjugated triene positioned at core an branched This precursor collapses to framework through orchestrated sequence two separate intramolecular cycloadditions. subsequent, late-stage hydrogenation accompanied by strain-release redox epimerizations...
A general synthetic approach to molecular structures that are hybrids of tetraethynylethylene (TEE) and tetravinylethylene (TVE) is reported. The synthesis permits the controlled preparation many previously inaccessible structures, including examples with different substituents on each four branching arms. Most substituted TVE–TEE found be significantly more robust compounds than their unsubstituted counterparts, enhancing prospects deployment in conducting materials devices. Their...
