RESUMO
The total synthesis of (+)-10-keto-oxycodone was attained from phenethyl acetate in a stereoselective manner. Absolute stereochemistry was established via enzymatic dihydroxylation of phenethyl acetate with the recombinant strain JM109 (pDTG601A) that furnished the corresponding cis-cyclohexadienediol whose configuration corresponds to the absolute stereochemistry of the ring C of (+)-10-keto-oxycodone. Intramolecular Heck reaction was utilized to establish the quaternary carbon at C-13, along with the dibenzodihydrofuran functionality. The C-14 hydroxyl and C-10 ketone were installed via SmI2-mediated radical cyclization, and oxidation of a benzylic alcohol (obtained from an intermediate nitrate azide), respectively. The synthesis of (+)-10-keto-oxycodone was completed in a total of 14 operations (21 steps) and an overall yield of ~2%. Experimental and spectral data are provided for key intermediates and new compounds.

The stereoselective total synthesis of unnatural (+)-galanthamine starting from phenethyl acetate is described. Chirality was introduced via microbial dihydroxylation of phenethyl acetate with the recombinant strain JM109 (pDTG601A) to the corresponding cis-cyclohexadi-enediol, configuration of which provided the absolute stereochemistry of the ring C of (+)-galanthamine. Intramolecular Heck cyclization was used to form the quaternary carbon and dibenzofuran functionality. The synthesis of (+)-galanthamine was completed in a total of ten steps and an overall yield of 5.5 %. Experimental and spectral data are provided for all new compounds.

The first total synthesis of polyhydroxylated cyclohexenone 1, isolated from Pleiogynium timorense and named pleiogenone A, is reported that also serves as a proof of structure and absolute configuration. Enzymatic dihydroxylation of benzoic acid with R. eutrophus B9 provided enantiomerically pure diene diol 6. Elaboration of the carboxylate moiety to the alkyl side chain was followed by singlet oxygen cycloaddition to furnish an endoperoxide whose reduction with thiourea led to cyclitol 19. Several protective operations were required before oxidation and the final extension of the side chain by a Wittig reaction. After final deprotection of the acetonide functionality the desired pleiogenone A (1) was obtained in 14 operations from benzoic acid.
