Herein we describe the synthesis of the carba analogue of motif C of arabinogalactan complex present in M tuberculosis cell wall. Pd(0) catalyzed allylic alkylation and Fraser-Reid{\textquoteright}s glycosidation are the two key reactions that were employed for the synthesis of central glycosyl accepter unit and the glycosylation respectively.

A new approach has been developed for the synthesis of enantiopure syn/anti-1,5-diols by desymmetrization of functionalized meso-bis-epoxides using hydrolytic kinetic resolution (HKR). The usage of this protocol was demonstrated by converting syn-1,5-diols into syn/syn-1,3,5-triols and its subseqent application to the formal synthesis of cryptocarya diacetate.

Enantioselective synthesis of the hexahydroazepine core of (-)-balanol and formal synthesis of cis-3hydroxypipecolic acid from a common intermediate have been accomplished by a divergent path. The common intermediate was accessed from a favorably protected enantiomerically pure 2-amino-1,3,4-butanetriol (ABT) equivalent via oxidation and Wittig olefination. The synthesis of (-)-balanol heterocycle featured tandem reduction/acetal-deprotection/gamma-lactonization reaction and a one-pot azide reduction followed by seven membered aza-heterocycle formation while the route to cis-3-hydroxypipecolic acid highlighted the base induced piperidine ring formation and regioselective benzylidine-acetal cleavage.

Although the construction of axially chiral C-C bonds leading to the atroposelective synthesis of biaryls and allied compounds are well-known, the related synthesis of compounds bearing axially chiral C-N bonds are relatively rare. Described herein is the N-heterocyclic carbene-catalyzed atroposelective synthesis of N-aryl succinimides having an axially chiral C-N bond via the desymmetrization of N-aryl maleimides. The NHC involved intermolecular Stetter-aldol cascade of dialdehydes with prochiral N-aryl maleimides followed by oxidation afforded N-aryl succinimides in good yields and ee values. Preliminary studies on rotation barrier for the C-N bond, the temperature dependence, and detailed DFT studies on mechanism are also provided.
