The first total synthesis of the complex hexacylic Daphniphyllum alkaloid (-)-daphlongamine H has been accomplished. Key to the success of the strategy are a complexity-building Mannich reaction, efficient cyclizations, and a highly diastereoselective hydrogenation to assemble multigram quantities of the tricyclic core bearing four contiguous stereocenters. Following construction of the hydro-indene substructure by means of a Pauson-Khand reaction, endgame redox manipulations delivered the natur ...[more]
