Comprehensive Summary C‐Glycosides are critical, naturally occurring products and
medicinal candidates, and extensive efforts have been made to explore efficient approaches …

C-Glycosides represent a privileged class of carbohydrates, which exhibit remarkable
biological and pharmaceutical activities. Transition metal-catalyzed cross coupling reaction …

After half a century from their isolation in 1974, we report the first total syntheses of β‐and γ‐
naphthocyclinones, two dimeric pyranonaphthoquinones featuring an unusual bicyclo [3.2 …

A Cu (OTf) 2-catalyzed glycosylation protocol using glycosyl ortho-N-phthalimidoylpropynyl
benzoates (NPPBs) as donors was disclosed, which features an inexpensive copper …

Comprehensive Summary Luzonicosides A (1) and D (2) are the major saponins isolated
from pacific starfish Echinaster Luzonicus, featuring a sterically congested 16‐membered …

We describe a stereoselective synthesis of the dimeric diazofluorene 15, a potential
precursor to the cytotoxic C 2-symmetric bacterial metabolite (−)-lomaiviticin A (1). An …

Radical reactions have emerged as indispensable tools in the synthesis of complex
molecules. In this perspective, we will discuss selected total syntheses that make use of …

Natural heparin, a glycosaminoglycan consisting of repeating hexuronic acid and
glucosamine linked by 1→ 4 glycosidic bonds, is the most widely used anticoagulant. To …

Here, we report an enantioselective synthesis of the monomeric nes product (−)-nenestatin
A, via the intermediary diazofluorene “diazonenestatin A.” Our route features a convergent …

The chapter deals with yet another type of natural compounds incorporating diazo
cyclopentadienyl moiety. Natural diazofluorenes involving monomeric kinamycins as well as …
