The continuous progress in medicinal chemistry requires more versatile synthetic strategies for the generation of large libraries of active compounds and their analogues. As a result, the research for new effective cyclization and cycloaddition reactions i ...
My PhD work started with the development of a racemic access to trigonoliimine B, an hexacyclic alkaloid isolated in 2010. After having explored different strategies, we reported a 7-step synthesis of this natural product. This synthesis features a challen ...
An approach to the synthesis of polyhydroxyazepane derivatives from sugar-based epoxyamides or epoxyalcohols, in which the total regioselective epoxide opening by nitrogen nucleophiles is the key step, is described. Thus, novel polyhydroxyazepane carboxami ...
Ligands based on bicyclic peptides can combine favourable properties of antibodies (good binding affinity and target specificity) and small molecule ligands (stability, access to chemical synthesis, diffusion properties) and might be suitable molecular str ...
Due to the spongistatins' fascinating and complex molecular architectures, and their important biological activities, these marine macrolides have been the subject of intensive efforts directed towards their total synthesis. As an attractive alternative to ...
This thesis describes a unified strategy for the synthesis of monoterpene indole alkaloids of the Aspidosperma family. These syntheses feature two key steps: (1) a palladiumcatalyzed decarboxylative vinylation that provides quick access to cyclopentene int ...
Looking for hidden symmetry: The first asymmetric total synthesis of pentacyclic (E)- and (Z)-alstoscholarines is accomplished starting from cyclic meso-anhydride 9. The absolute configuration was set by an organocatalytic desymmetrization of 9. Other key ...
Enantioselective total syntheses of title natural products from a common cyclohexenone derivative (S)-18 were reported. Ozonolysis of (S)-18 afforded a stable diketo ester (R)-17 that was subsequently converted to two skeletally different natural products, ...
Combination of the surfactant-free nonaqueous sol-gel approach with the microwave technique makes it possible to synthesize Fe3O4, CoFe2O4, MnFe2O4, and NiFe 2O4 nanoparticles of about 5-6 nm and with high crystallinity and good morphological uniformity. T ...
The regioselective and diastereoselective cyclization of acyliminium intermediates generated from aminocyclopropanes on unprotected indoles is presented. The recent results obtained in our group are compared with previous intermolecular reactions with amin ...
