Abstract

Cu-mediated C(sp(2))-N bond formation has received intense interest recently, and has been applied to the total synthesis of a wide variety of structurally complex natural products. This review covers the synthetic assembly of peptide natural products in which Cu-mediated enamide formation is the key transformation. The total syntheses of cyclopeptide alkaloids, pacidamycin D, and yaku'amide A exemplify the versatility of the Cu-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction in comparison to other synthetic methods.
