Abstract

This thesis focuses on the efficient syntheses of indole alkaloids based on gold-catalyzed cascade cyclizations. Total syntheses of these natural products have been achieved using two strategies for the construction of pyrrolocarbazole cores via gold-catalyzed reaction of conjugated diyne or ynamide. This chapter provides an overview of biosynthesis and previous total synthesis of dictyodendrins and vindorosine, then introduced the gold-catalyzed reaction of alkynes.
