Zusammenfassung:Efficient and concise approaches for the synthesis of three bioactive natural products, isohericerin, isohericenone, and erinacerin A, are described in this paper. The key reactions employed include a Mannich reaction with commercially available hydroxy­benzoate and subsequent one-pot lactamization to afford the common precursor isoindolinone in 3 steps and a Suzuki–Miyaura coupling reaction to connect geranyl side chains to the isoindolinone core. In addition, the mild and efficient synthesis of the C5′-oxidized geranyl side unit of isohericenone is enabled by developing a highly regioselective and efficient method for the Cu-catalyzed methylboronation of functionalized terminal alkynes.
