Piemontesi C Wang Q Zhu J 2016 A seven-step enantioselective total synthesis of (-)-terengganensine A, a complex heptacyclic monoterpene indole alkaloid, was accomplished. Key steps included: a) Noyori's catalytic enantioselective transfer hydrogenation of the iminium salt to set up the absolute configuration at the C21 position; b) a highly diastereoselective C7 benzoyloxylation with dibenzoyl peroxide under mild conditions; and c) an integrated one-pot oxidative cleavage of cyclopentene/triple cyclization/hydrolysis sequence for the construction of the dioxa azaadamantane motif with complete control of four newly generated stereocenters. https://sonar.ch/global/documents/25720 eng info:eu-repo/semantics/altIdentifier/doi/10.1002/anie.201602374 info:eu-repo/semantics/altIdentifier/pmid/27094030 Angewandte Chemie (International ed. in English). - 2016 asymmetric synthesis domino cyclization hydroxylation monoterpene indole alkaloids total synthesis Enantioselective Total Synthesis of (-)-Terengganensine A. http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501
