Abstract

Making scab(ronine)s: The total synthesis of (-)-scabronine G features a highly stereoselective oxidative dearomatization/intramolecular inverse-electron-demand Diels-Alder reaction cascade, and the first total synthesis of (-)-scabronine A comprises a highly stereoselective oxa-Michael/protonation/acetalization cascade. The first total synthesis of (-)-episcabronine A includes another highly stereoselective cascade.
