The first enantioselective total synthesis of griseusin A, griseusin C, 4'-deacetyl-griseusin A, and two non-native counterparts in 11-14 steps is reported. This strategy highlights a key hydroxy-directed CH olefination of 1-methylene isochroman with an α,β-unsaturated ketone followed by subsequent stereoselective epoxidation and regioselective cyclization to afford the signature tetrahydro-spiropyran ring. Colorectal cancer cell cytotoxicities of the final products highlight the impact of the…

Stereoselective Total Synthesis of the Dimeric Naphthoquinonopyrano-γ-lactone (-)-Crisamicin A: Introducing the Dimerization Site by a Late-Stage Hartwig Borylation.
TLDR
The first stereoselective total synthesis of the dimeric naphthoquinonopyrano-γ-lactone (-)-crisamicin A was realized and led to a binaphthohydroquinon-5-yl.
First Stereoselective Total Synthesis of a Dimeric Naphthoquinonopyrano-γ-lactone: (+)-γ-Actinorhodin.
TLDR
This work has accomplished the first total synthesis of an isomerically pure naphthoquinonopyrano-γ-lactone dimer, γ-actinorhodin, in eleven steps, and established the absolute configuration of the target compound, which was established in an asymmetric Sharpless dihydroxylation of a β,γ-unsaturated ester.

TLDR
Proof-of-concept protocols have been developed for the Rh(III) -catalyzed synthesis of naphthalenes, based on the coupling of enaminones with either alkynes or α-diazo-β-ketoesters.

Since Sharpless' discovery of the asymmetric dihydroxylation of C=C double bonds in the late 1980s this reaction has become a powerful tool of synthetic organic chemistry. As a consequence, this…
Regioselective synthesis of naphthoquinone/naphthoquinol-carbohydrate hybrids by [4 + 2] anionic annulations and studies on their cytotoxicity.
TLDR
The in vitro cytotoxic activity of the synthetic naphthoquinone/naphthonol-carbohydrate hybrids were evaluated against the human cervical cancer cell line (HeLa), and a few of them were found to exhibit potent anticancer activity against the cell line.

TLDR
The "reverse polarity" or "umpolung" strategy for the total synthesis of aryl C-glycosides was developed in the context of the antibiotic (-)-griseusin B and was converted to the same advanced model intermediate that contains the complete carbon skeleton and the functional group pattern of the griseusins.
