Dielectric Tetramer Nanoresonators Supporting Strong Superchiral Fields for Vibrational Circular Dichroism Spectroscopy

Hatice Altug, Felix Ulrich Richter, Yasaman Jahani, Rui Lu, Bang Hyun Lee, Ming-Lun Tseng, Longfang Ye

Chirality (C) is a fundamental property of objects, in terms of symmetry. It is extremely important to sense and distinguish chiral molecules in the fields of biochemistry, science, and medicine. Vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectroscopy, obtained ...

Enantioselective Total Synthesis of (+)-Nordasycarpidone, (+)-Dasycarpidone, and (+)-Uleine

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Cédric Fung, Bastien Delayre

The structure of uleine type alkaloids is characterized by the presence of a bridged tetracyclic hexahydro-1H-1,5-methanoazocino[4,3-b]indole ring system 1. Various strategies have been developed to access this polycyclic structural motif. We report herein ...

Indole Alkaloids, Macrocycles and Heterocycles

Cyril Piemontesi

An enantioselective total synthesis of (-)-terengganensine A, a heptacyclic monoterpene indole alkaloid, was performed. A short sequence allowed to obtain the enantio-enriched target in good overall yield. The synthesis featured a key asymmetric transfer h ...

Dearomatization of electron poor six-membered N-heterocycles through [3+2] annulation with aminocyclopropanes

Jérôme Waser, Johannes Preindl, Shyamal Chakrabarty

Many abundant and highly bioactive natural alkaloids contain an indolizidine skeleton. A simple, high yielding method to synthesize this scaffold from N-heterocycles was developed. A wide range of pyridines, quinolines and isoquinolines reacted with donor- ...

Enantioselective Synthesis of (+)-Peganumine A

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Cyril Piemontesi

A gram-scale enantioselective total synthesis of (+)-peganumine A was accomplished in 7 steps from commercially available 6-methoxytryptamine. Key steps included (a) a Liebeskind−Srogl cross-coupling; (b) a one-pot construction of the tetracyclic skeleton ...

Chiral N-Heterocyclic Carbene Ligand Enabled Nickel(0)-Catalyzed Enantioselective Three-Component Couplings as Direct Access to Silylated Indanols

Nicolai Cramer, Joachim Sven Ernst Ahlin

An enantioselective nickel(0)-catalyzed reductive three-component coupling between aromatic aldehydes, norbornenes, and silanes affords directly silyl-protected indanol derivatives. A new bulky chiral C-2-symmetric NHC (NHC = N-heterocyclic carbene) ligand ...
