To illustrate the synthetic significance of C-C activation methods, here we describe an efficient strategy for the enantioselective total syntheses of (-)-cycloclavine and (-)-5-epi-cycloclavine, which is enabled by an asymmetric Rh-catalyzed cut-and-sew transformation between benzocyclobutenones and olefins. Despite the compact structure of cycloclavine with five-fused rings, the total synthesis was accomplished in 10 steps with a 30% overall yield. Key features of the synthesis include (1) a Pd-catalyzed tandem C-N bond coupling/allylic alkylation sequence to construct the nitrogen-tethered benzocyclobutenone, (2) a highly enantioselective Rh-catalyzed carboacylation of alkenes to forge the indoline-fused tricyclic structure, and (3) a diastereoselective cyclopropanation for preparing the tetrasubstituted cyclopropane ring. Notably, an improved catalytic condition has been developed for the nitrogen-tethered cut-and-sew transformation, which uses a low catalyst loading and allows for a broad substrate scope with high enantioselectivity (94-99% e.e.). The C-C activation-based strategy employed here is anticipated to have further implications for syntheses of other natural products that contain complex fused or bridged rings.

A convenient method for preparing diverse o-iodoaryl triflates by the desilyliodination of o-silylaryl triflates has been developed. The treatment of o-silylaryl triflates with 1,3-diiodo- 5,5-dimethylhydantoin (DIH) in the presence of aluminum trichloride efficiently afforded the corresponding o-iodoaryl triflates, including those with multiple 1-iodo-2-(triflyloxy)arene moieties. Various multisubstituted o-iodoaryl triflates were easily prepared by the iridium-catalyzed CH borylation of readily available, simple o-silylaryl triflates, followed by deborylative transformations and subsequent desilyliodinaton.
Synthesis of diverse benzotriazoles from aryne precursors bearing an azido group via inter- and intramolecular cycloadditions

A diverse range of benzotriazoles were synthesized from various 3-(azidoalkoxy)aryne precursors, which were easily prepared by Mitsunobu etherification. Various bis-1,2,3-triazoles containing a benzotriazole skeleton were obtained via sequential azide-alkyne and azide-aryne cycloadditions. Intramolecular azido-aryne cycloaddition, conducted using the same starting materials, afforded new types of ring-fused benzotriazoles. In the latter case, the reaction proceeded efficiently even though the regioorientation of the azido group was the reverse of that usually observed in intermolecular reactions between 3-alkoxyarynes and an azide.
