General procedures. All reactions were carried out under a nitrogen atmosphere with dry

solvents using anhydrous conditions unless otherwise stated. Dry diethyl ether (Et2O),

dichloromethane (CH2Cl2), acetonitrile (CH3CN), methanol (MeOH) and triethylamine (Et3N)

were obtained by passing these previously degassed solvents through activated alumina columns.

Dry nitromethane (CH3NO2) was obtained by distillation from CaH2 and stored under Ar over

4Å MS. Reagents were purchased at the highest commercial quality and used without further

purification, unless otherwise stated. Yields refer to chromatographically and spectroscopically

(1H NMR) homogeneous materials, unless otherwise stated. Reactions were monitored by thin

layer chromatography (TLC) carried out on 0.25 mm E. Merck silica gel plates (60F-254) using

UV light as the visualizing agent and an acidic mixture of anisaldehyde, phosphomolybdic acid,

or ceric ammonium molybdate, or basic aqueous potassium permangante (KMnO4), and heat as

developing agents. E. Merck silica gel (60, particle size 0.043–0.063 mm) was used for flash

column chromatography. Preparative thin layer chromatography (pTLC) separations were

carried out on 0.25 or 0.5 mm E. Merck silica gel plates (60F-254). NMR spectra were recorded

on Bruker DRX-600, DRX-500, and AMX-400 or Varian Inova-400 instruments and calibrated

using residual undeuterated solvent as an internal reference (CHCl3 @ 7.26 ppm 1H NMR, 77.16

ppm 13C NMR; DMSO-d6 @ 2.50, 3.30 ppm 1H NMR, 39.51 ppm 13C NMR). The following

abbreviations (or combinations thereof) were used to explain the multiplicities: s = singlet, d =

doublet, t = triplet, q = quartet, m = multiplet, b = broad. On inseparable mixtures, partial

assigment is provided in the NMR spectra supporting information file. High-resolution mass

spectra (HRMS) were recorded on Agilent LC/MSD TOF time-of-flight mass spectrometer by

electrospray ionization time of flight reflectron experiments. IR spectra were recorded on a

Perkin Elmer Spectrum BX FTIR spectrometer. Melting points were recorded on a Fisher-Johns

Experimental

Compound S21: A 250 mL round bottom flask equipped with a stir bar was charged with 5-

methyl-2-bromoaniline S1 (15 g, 80.620 mmol, 1 equiv) which was suspended in conc. HCl (81

ml) to obtain a white slurry. This mixture was cooled at 0 °C before a solution of NaNO2 (8.34 g,

120.930 mmol, 1.5 equiv) in H2O (10.4 mL) was added dropwise (Caution! Toxic gases form

during this addition). The resulting yellow solution was stirred at 0 °C for 10 min after which a

solution of diethylamine (6.5 g, 88.680 mmol, 1.1 equiv) in 1 M KOH (68.2 mL) was poured

into the reaction flask. The reaction was allowed to proceed at 0 °C for 1h before it was

quenched with 3 M NaOH (or KOH) until the pH reached 12. The product was extracted with

EtOAc (3 x 75 mL). The combined organic layers were then washed with brine, dried over

MgSO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The desired product S2 (19.68 g, 91% yield) was

isolated after rapid chromatography (silica gel, 49:1 hexanes/EtOAc) as a brown oil.

Compound 21: A 2 L round bottom flask equipped with a stir bar and a septum, previously

flame-dried under vacuum, was charged with S2 (31.4 g, 116.66 mmol, 1 equiv), azeotroped

from benzene (100 mL) and kept under Ar. After addition of Et2O (1 L), the solution was cooled

at –78 ˚C and sec-BuLi (1.4 M in cyclohexane, 140.000 mmol, 100 mL, 1.2 equiv) was added

dropwise to give a red solution which was stirred for 30 min at the same temperature. After this

time, SO2(g) was condensed via cannula into the reaction flask until the mixture became a pale

yellow suspension (and the color is persistent; 5–10 min). The resulting mixture was stirred for 1

h at –78 ˚C, then at room temperature for 5 h before the solvent was removed in vacuo to give a

pale brown solid which was maintained under an atmosphere of Ar. The resulting solid (aryl

sulfonate lithium salt) was dissolved in CH2Cl2 (1 L) and the solution was cooled at 0 ˚C before

NCS (18.7 g, 140.000 mmol, 1.2 equiv) was added in one portion. The brown mixture was

stirred at 0 ˚C for 10h/overnight before being quenched with a saturated solution of NH4Cl (200

mL). The aqueous layer was extracted with EtOAc (3 x 200 mL) and the resulting organic

solution was washed with brine (500 mL), dried over MgSO4 and concentrated in vacuo. Thus

TzoCl 21 (23.26 g) was isolated after column chromatography (silica gel, 9:1 hexane/EtOAc)

(69% yield).

General procedure for the synthesis of alkyl triazine tosylates/tosylamines

A 5 mL vial equipped with a stir bar, previously flame-dried under vacuum and cooled under an

atmosphere of Ar, was charged with the alcohol/amine (1 equiv) and TzoCl 21 (1.25 equiv) which

were then dissolved in CH2Cl2 (0.5 M). To this mixture DMAP (2 equiv) was added2 and the

reaction was allowed to proceed at room temperature under Ar for 16–24 h (TLC control). The

resulting suspension was diluted with EtOAc (3 mL) and washed with H2O (2 mL). The layers

were then partitioned and the aqueous solution was further extracted with EtOAc (3 x 3 mL). The

combined organic layers were dried over MgSO4, filtrated and concentrated in vacuo. The

product was purified by flash chromatography (silica gel, hexanes/EtOAc).

Compound S3: Synthesized from 2,6-dimethyl-heptan-4-ol (0.400 mmol)

following the general procedure. After purification on silica gel (10:1

hexanes/EtOAc), the product was obtained in 92% yield (143.3 mg).

flame dried under vacuum and cooled under an atmosphere of Ar,

dihydrojunenol (28.7 mg, 0.128 mmol, 1 equiv) and 21 (148.0 mg, 0.592

mmol, 4 equiv) were dissolved in CH2Cl2 (0.25 mL). To this mixture DMAP (94.0 mg, 0.768

mmol, 6 equiv) was added and the reaction was allowed to proceed at room temperature under

Ar for 4 days. In order to drive the reaction to completion, more triazine tosyl chloride 21 (75.0

mg, 0.256 mmol, 2 equiv) and DMAP (50.0 mg, 0.384 mmol, 3 equiv) were added and the

mixture was stirred at room temperature for another 3 days (TLC control). The resulting

suspension was diluted with EtOAc (2 mL) and washed with H2O (2 mL). The layers were then

partitioned and the aqueous solution was further extracted with EtOAc (3 x 3 mL). The organic

mixture was dried over MgSO4, filtrated and concentrated in vacuo. After purification on silica

gel (10:1 hexanes/EtOAc), the product was isolated in 65% yield (39.7 mg).

An alternative method for the synthesis of 40 is the following: To a solution of dihydrojunenol

(10 mg, 0.044 mmol, 1 equiv) in dry THF (0.25 mL) cooled at 0 ºC, a solution of nBuLi (2.4 M,

23 mL, 1.2 equiv) was added dropwise. The resulting mixture was stirred at 0 ºC for 20 mins

before a solution of TzoCl 21 (19.4 mg, 0.066 mmol, 1.5 equiv) in THF (50 µL) was added and

as a result the reaction mixture turned dark red. The reaction proceeded overnight at 4 ºC before

being quenched with saturated NH4Cl (2 mL) and extracted with EtOAc (3 x 3 mL). The organic

solution was washed with brine, dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo to give a

General procedures for desaturation

General procedure A: A 20 mL vial adapted with a septum and a stir bar was flame dried under

vacuum and kept under an Ar atmosphere. The vial was charged with the SM (0.1 mmol, 1

equiv) and TEMPO (0.1 mmol, 1 equiv) which were dissolved in previously degassed CH3NO2

(4 mL) to give a pale brown solution. To this mixture TFA (0.3 mmol, 3 equiv) was added in one

portion and as a result the reaction mixture turned light yellow. The vial was then placed in a

preheated oil bath at 60 ºC and the reaction was allowed to proceed for 1.5h. Upon completion

the solvent was removed in vacuo and the resulting crude mixture was dissolved with EtOAc (3

mL) and washed with 1 N HCl (2 mL). After they layers were partitioned, the aqueous solution

was further extracted with EtOAc (3 x 3 mL) and the combined organic solution was dried over

MgSO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The pure product was isolated after flash

chromatography (silica gel, hexanes/EtOAc).

Compound 48: A 5 mL vial, flame dried and maintained under Ar was charged with 47 (21 mg,

CH3NO2 (1.2 mL) was added and only TEMPO was observed to go into solution. Upon addition

of TFA (13.7 mg, 9.2 µL, 0.12 mmol, 4 equiv) and sonication of the reaction mixture (2–3 min) a

cloudy suspension was obtained. The vial was then immersed in a preheated oil bath at 60 ºC and

the reaction proceeded for 1.5 h (LC-MS control). During this time, a white solid was observed

to precipitate out of the solution. After the allotted reaction time (1.5 h), the crude mixture was

centrifugated to separate a white solid which was then washed with CH3NO2 (1 mL). The

resulting solid residue was taken up in CH2Cl2 and purified by chromatography (silica gel, 20:1

CH2Cl2/MeOH) to obtain 6.2 mg (35% yield) of 48. (No desired product was detected in the

remaining crude reaction solution.)

Compound S17: 1. A flame dried round bottom flask, was kept under Ar and charged with

cyclopentane-carboxylic acid (1g, 8.76 mmol, 1 equiv) which was dissolved in dry THF (8.8

mL) and the resulting solution was cooled at –78 ºC. To this, a solution of secBuLi (1.1 M in

cyclohexane, 23.9 mL, 26.28 mmol, 3 equiv) was added dropwise and the reaction was

maintained at –78 ºC for 10 min, before being transferred in an ice bath (0 ºC) and stirred for 1h.

After this time, D2O (1.75 g, 1.75 mL, 87.6 mmol, 10 equiv) was added dropwise and the

resulting mixture was kept at 0 ºC for another hour before being quenched with 1N HCl (5 mL).

After separation of the aqueous layer, the organic solution was further washed with water (2 x 5

mL) and then shaken with 3N KOH (10 mL, until pH ≈ 12). After portioning of the layers, the

resulting aqueous solution was acidified with 3N HCl (15 mL, until pH ≈ 1) and the product was

extracted with Et2O (3 x 30 mL). The resulting organic solution was washed with brine (20 mL),

dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo to give the desired deuterated acid (672

mg, 67% yield) which was used without further purification.

2. A flame dried 20 mL vial was charged with LAH (332.4 mg, 5.2 mmol, 3 equiv) in THF (5

mL). To this slurry, a solution of the previously prepared α,α-bisdeuterated cyclopentane-

carboxylic acid (119.2 mg, 1.731 mmol, 1 equiv) in THF (3 mL + 2 mL rinse) was added

dropwise at 0 ºC. The resulting reaction mixture was allowed to proceed under Ar, at room

temperature for 2 h before being quenched with H2O (0.3 mL), 1N KOH (0.6 mL) and H2O (0.9

mL). To this white slurry, Et2O (5 mL) was added and after separation of the organic layer, the

aqueous mixture was further extracted with Et2O (3 x 5 mL). The combined organic solution was

then washed with brine (20 mL), dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo (from

ice) to give the desired alcohol in 93% yield (162.4 mg).

3. A flame dried 20 mL vial was charged with the previously prepared alcohol (162.4 mg, 1.606

mmol, 1 equiv) which was dissolved in DCM (7 mL) and cooled at 0 ºC. To this solution, MsCl

(220 mg, 1.927 mmol, 1.2 equiv) was added followed by NEt3 (324.4 mg, 0.43 mL, 3.212 mmol,

2 equiv). The resulting reaction mixture was stirred under Ar for 20 min at 0 ºC, then at room

temperature for 40 min before being quenched with saturated NH4Cl (4 mL) and extracted with

EtOAc (3 x 5 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over MgSO4,

filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The crude mixture was further purified by chromatography

(silica gel, 10:1 hexanes/ EtOAc) to give the desired mesylate S17 in 67% (192.7 mg).

Compound S18: 1. A flame dried 20 mL vial was charged with S17 (148.5 mg, 0.829 mmol, 1

equiv) and NaCN (203 mg, 4.145 mmol, 5 equiv) and then DMSO (4.2 mL) was added to

produce a cloudy suspension. This mixture was stirred at 60 ºC for 5h (TLC control) and it was

then diluted with H2O (10 mL) and extracted with Et2O (5 x 3 mL). The combined organic layers

were washed with brine (10 mL), dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The

resulting mixture was filtered through a plug of silica (to remove traces of DMSO) (elute with

Et2O) and the resulting solution was concentrated in vacuo and used in the next reaction as such.

2. The previously prepared nitrile was transferred to a flame dried vial, kept under Ar, dissolved

in DCM (8.3 mL) and the solution was cooled at –78 ºC. To this, DIBAL-H (1M in hexanes,

1.650 mmol, 2 equiv) was added dropwise and the resulting reaction mixture was stirred at the

same temperature (-78 ºC) for 1.5h. Acetone (1 mL) was then added before the mixture was

warmed up to room temperature. The crude mixture was dissolved in Et2O (15 mL) and a

solution of Rochelle salt (15 mL) was added and the resulting slurry was vigorously stirred

overnight at room temperature. After the layers were partitioned, the aqueous solution was

further extracted with Et2O (5 x 5 mL) and the combined organic layers were washed with brine

was used in the next reaction without purification.

3. The previously synthesized aldehyde was placed in a 20 mL flame dried vial, kept under Ar

and dissolved in THF (8 mL). This solution was cooled at 0 ºC and LAH (4 M in Et2O, 2.440

mmol, 0.6 mL, 3 equiv) was added dropwise. The resulting white slurry was stirred at room

temperature overnight before being quenched with H2O (0.2 mL), 1M KOH (0.4 mL) and H2O

(0.6 mL). After the layers were partitioned, the aqueous solution was further extracted with Et2O

(3 x 5 mL) and the combined organic layers were washed with brine (10 mL), dried over MgSO4,

filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The desired product S18 was isolated after chromatography

Compound 55: 1. In a flamed dried 5 mL vial, a mixture of cyclopentyl-ethanol (200 mg, 1.75

mmol, 1 equiv), ortho-nitro-benzenesulfonyl chloride (580 mg, 2.625 mmol, 1.5 equiv), DMAP

(21.4 mg, 0.175 mmol, 0.1 equiv) was dissolved in THF (2.1 mL). To this solution, NEt3 (441.8

mg, 0.6 mL, 4.375 mmol, 2.5 equiv) was added and the resulting mixture was allowed to stir at

room temperature under Ar overnight (TLC control). Upon completion, the reaction was washed

with sat NH4Cl (3 mL) and extracted with EtOAc (3 x 3 mL). The organic solution was further

washed with brine (5 mL), dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The crude

mixture was purified by flash chromatography (silica gel, 10:1 hexanes/EtOAc) to yield 284.3

mg of desired product (54% yield, unoptimized).

The previously synthesized ortho-nitro tosylate (150 mg, 0.5 mmol, 1 equiv) was transferred to a

flame-dried vial and kept under Ar. To this, Pd/C (10 mol%) (80 mg, 0.075 mmol, 0.15 equiv)

was added and the vial was placed under high vacuum before being filled with H2 (process

repeated 3X). Upon addition of cyclohexane (10 mL), the heterogeneous solution was stirred at

room temperature overnight (H2 balloon). The resulting mixture was filtered through a plug of

celite (eluted with EtOAc) and after evaporation of the solvent, 55 was obtained in 96% yield
