Abstract

Concise, enantioselective, and divergent syntheses of alstoscholarisines A and E are presented in 8 and 9 steps, respectively; alstoscholarisine E has never been accessed before. A boron-mediated aldol reaction and Rh-catalyzed cycloisomerization were exploited to access stereoisomers 8 and 9 as key intermediates. The challenging sterically congested alstoscholarisine core was furnished by a reductive transannular cyclization in the final steps. This strategy was also used for the syntheses of enantiomers of alstoscholarisines A and E.
