Abstract
We report herein that the oroidin-derived alkaloids palau'amine (1), dibromophakellin (2), and dibromophakellstatin (3) inhibit the proteolytic activity of the human 20S proteasome as well as the (i)20S immunoproteasome catalytic core. Palau'amine is found to prevent the degradation of ubiquitinylated proteins, including IκBα, in cell culture, which may be indicative of the potential mechanism by which these agents exhibit their exciting cytotoxic and immunosuppressive properties.

Exploratory oxidative cyclization studies on cyclopentanelated and cyclohexenelated oroidin derivatives utilized Pummerer chemistry to generate pentacyclic structures related to the palau'amine family of sponge metabolites. Stereochemical issues were paramount, and appropriate choice of annelated ring size led to formation of the pentacyclic framework with complete diastereoselectivity for all of the core bonds.

Abstract
The thermal, photochemical, and photochemical/CuI-mediated cascade cyclizations of a range of substituted 1-(2-azidophenyl)-3-alkenylallenes are described. These reactions provide both 1,2- and 2,3-cyclopentennelated indole products in varying ratios. In most cases, high regioselectivity for the 2,3-annelated isomer can be achieved under the hnu/CuI conditions. Computational studies of this multistep reaction support the intermediacy of indolidene intermediates whose electrocyclizations (with or without copper present) define the regioselectivity branch point in the sequence.

Abstract
Henipaviruses were first discovered in the 1990s, and their potential threat to public health is of increasing concern with increasing knowledge. Old-world fruit bats are the reservoir hosts for these viruses, and spill-over events cause lethal infections in a wide range of mammalian species, including humans. In anticipation of these spill-over events, and to investigate further the geographical range of these genetically diverse viruses, assays for detection of known and potentially novel strains of henipaviruses are required. The development of multiple consensus PCR assays for the detection of henipaviruses, including both SYBR Green and TaqMan real-time PCRs and a conventional heminested PCR is described. The assays are highly sensitive and have defined specificity. In addition to being useful tools for detection of known and novel henipaviruses, evaluation of assay efficiency and sensitivity across both biological and synthetic templates has provided valuable insight into consensus PCR design and use.

Abstract
Detailed studies of the thermal conversion of 1-azidohepta-3,4,6-trienes into cyclopentennelated dihydropyrroles are presented. High levels of diastereoselectivity and regioselectivity are documented. A mechanistic proposal that accounts for all of the diverse results is developed through the use of density functional calculations. These calculations provide support for the intervention of unexpected mechanistic subtleties, such as the planarity of an azatrimethylenemethane diyl intermediate and an apparent Woodward-Hoffmann-type electrocyclization of a five-atom diyl array.

Abstract
A series of 11 simple phylloquinone derivatives, each lacking the extended phytyl side chain but featuring H-bond donor amides at one or both peri positions, were prepared and some salient physical properties were measured. A correlation between both IR frequency and NMR peak position, as indicators of internal H-bond strength, and the quinone half-wave reduction potential, was observed. These data are consistent with the prevailing hypothesis that quinone carbonyl H-bonding in general, and stronger H-bonds in particular, favorably bias the endogenous quinone's electrochemical potential toward easier reduction.

Abstract
A density functional theory based computational approach to describing the mechanistic course of the allene azide cycloaddition cascade sequence has been developed. The results of these calculations permit characterization of key reactive intermediates (diradicals and/or indolidenes) and explain the different behaviors observed in the experimental studies between conjugated and nonconjugated species. Furthermore, computational analysis of certain intermediates offer insight into issues of regioselectivity and stereoselectivity in cases where different reaction channels are in competition, suggesting suitable substitutions to achieve a single regioisomer in the indole synthesis via azide-allene cyclization.

Abstract
The putative reductive activation chemistry of the diazoparaquinone antibiotics was modeled with Bu(3)Sn-H and prekinamycin dimethyl ether along with prekinamycin itself. Reaction in various combinations of aromatic solvents, with and without the nucleophile benzylmercaptan present, led to isolation of both radical-trapping arene adducts and nucleophilic capture benzyl thioether products. On the basis of these product distribution studies, the intermediacies of, first, a cyclopentenyl radical and, next, an orthoquinonemethide electrophile are postulated.

The conversion of (Ss)-3-(omega-allylsilane and silyl enol ether)indole-2-sulfoxides to spirocyclic indolenines and then to oxindoles proceeds, in favorable cases, with moderate levels of chirality transfer from sulfur to C3 of the indole core. A mechanistic model, which features either an Sn2'-like additive Pummerer sequence or a tight ion pair generated by an Sn1-like vinylogous Pummerer transform, is proposed to rationalize the sense of asymmetric induction.

Abstract
The brominative cyclization of diastereomeric beta-silyloxy tryptophan derivatives proceeded with divergent regiochemistry (C(2) or C(3) addition), depending on the relative stereochemistry of the silyloxy substituent. This lack of C(2) vs C(3) regiochemical predictability led to the development of a new approach, which featured Pummerer-type chemistry on an indole C(2) sulfoxide or sulfide substrate, for steering nucleophilic addition to C(3) of the indole. Extension of this transformation from carboxylate nucleophiles to carbon analogues such as allylsilane, silyl enol ether, and silyl ketene iminal bearing substrates led to the formation of spirocyclic oxindole derivatives in good yields with complete regioselectivity for C(3) cyclization and with good diastereoselectivity where relevant.

Abstract
Continuing studies on the total synthesis of ellagitannin plant metabolites have led to the preparation of the dimeric antitumor compound, coriariin A, as well as designed structural analogues. In related investigations, the synthesis of a 2,4-hexahydroxydiphenoyl (HHDP)-bearing glucopyranose structure has been achieved. This species is related to the geraniin family of ellagitannins, and its subsequent chemistry is suggestive of a mechanistic rationale for the observation that the HHDP units within (3,6-bridged)2,4-HHDP-containing ellagitannins invariably are oxidized further in vivo. Companion studies designed to assay the immunomodulatory properties of coriariin A and analogues have led to the thesis that tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) serves as a mediator of this ellagitannin's tumor remissive activity. Furthermore, certain tannins and tannin analogues appear to act in an immunosuppressive capacity with peripheral blood monocytes that were exposed to the bacterially derived septic shock inducing agent lipid A.

Thermolysis of 5-azidoallenes bearing a C(1) methyl group and either an aryl ring or an alkene on C(1) furnishes tricyclic (from the aryl substrates) or bicyclic (from the alkenyl substrates) pyrrolidine products following formal H-CN addition across an intermediate imine. High levels of diastereoselectivity are observed in all cases studied.

Treatment of 2-(phenylsulfinyl)indoles bearing a pendant nucleophile at C(3) with Tf(2)O/lutidine triggers a Pummerer-like cyclization to furnish 3,3-spirocyclic-2-(phenylthio)indolenine products, which can, in turn, be hydrolyzed to 3,3-spirocyclic oxindoles. [reaction: see text]

Abstract
The synthesis of a 2,4-HHDP containing glucopyranose ellagitannin model system has been achieved. Attempts to prepare a related target bearing a 1,6 bridge led instead to the discovery of a likely strain-driven tautomerization to cyclohexadienone intermediates.

Abstract
The first chemical synthesis of pareitropone, by a route featuring application of alkynyliodonium salt chemistry, is described. The key transform initiates with addition of an alkylidenecarbene, derived by intramolecular nucleophile addition to the alkynyliodonium moiety, to a proximal aromatic ring. This addition delivers a highly strained norcaradiene substructure that rapidly reorganizes to furnish the pareitropone skeleton.

Abstract
The total syntheses of natural agelastatin A and agelastatin B were accomplished via a strategy that utilized an alkynyliodonium salt --> alkylidenecarbene --> cyclopentene transformation to convert a relatively simple amino alcohol derivative to the functionalized core of the agelastatin system. Subsequent manipulations delivered debromoagelastatin, which served as a precursor to both agelastatin A and agelastatin B. Alkylidenecarbene insertion chemoselectivity issues were explored en route to the final targets.

Abstract
The syntheses of a bis indole and an indole salicylate with the required axial chirality for diazonamide A are reported. Atropselectivity in these biaryl systems is enforced by an sp(3) stereogenic center in a lactone tether in both cases. [structure: see text]

Abstract
The synthesis of the tropoloisoquinoline alkaloid pareitropone has been accomplished in 14 steps from 2,3,4-trimethoxybenzoic acid. The key transformations include the generation of an alkylidenecarbene intermediate through intramolecular addition of a tosylamide anion to an alkynyliodonium salt, and the cycloaddition of that carbene to a peri positioned aromatic ring to afford a cycloheptatrienylidene product featuring the intact pareitropone skeleton.

Abstract
The asymmetric total syntheses of (-)-agelastatin A and (-)-agelastatin B were accomplished in 14 steps each from (R)-epichlorohydrin. The pivotal transformation in both sequences was a sulfinate-promoted cyclization of an alkynyliodonium salt to furnish a key functionalized cyclopentene intermediate. Selective bromination in the final step led to either agelastatin A or agelastatin B, depending upon conditions.
