Classical syntheses of polycyclic alkaloids are often long and involve a large number of steps principally due to a sequential preparation of every cycle of the molecule. It is well established that one-pot multi-reactions (reaction cascades and reaction sequences) provide undeniable advantages over stepwise processes, such as economy of time, resource management, labor, and waste generation. In this vein, we will use a sequence Vilsmeier-Haack cyclization and azomethine ylide cycloaddition (V-H/3+2) that we developed recently to create 3 C-C bonds and 3 cycles in a single transformation, and use this strategy to synthesize daphnilactone B-type and yuzurimine-type alkaloids (never synthesized before), as well as Aspidosperma and Strychnos alkaloids (in 33 to 40% less steps than published non racemic syntheses). With such a rapid approach, many members of these families will be readily accessible, which will undoubtedly catch the attention of several synthetic chemists for the design, and of medicinal chemists for using these cores in drug development. We will also develop an asymmetric version of the Vilsmeier-Haack reaction to generate molecules containing all-carbon quaternary centers such as alpha,alpha-disubstituted beta-amino acids and beta dicarbonyls. This method will be used in the V-H/3+2 strategy to access enantioenriched polycyclic alkaloids as well. The success of this project will provide an entry to a wide variety of non-racemic unnatural amino acids that are not yet accessible through existing methods, and this will of course be of the greatest interest for the pharmaceutical industry and academic research.

多环生物碱的经典合成通常很长，并且主要是由于分子的每个循环的顺序制备，涉及大量步骤。众所周知，一锅多反应（反应级联和反应序列）在逐步过程（例如时间的经济，资源管理，劳动力和废物产生）方面具有不可否认的优势。 In this vein, we will use a sequence Vilsmeier-Haack cyclization and azomethine ylide cycloaddition (V-H/3+2) that we developed recently to create 3 C-C bonds and 3 cycles in a single transformation, and use this strategy to synthesize daphnilactone B-type and yuzurimine-type alkaloids (never synthesized before), as well as香肠植物和斯特里诺族生物碱（比发表的非外星人合成的步骤少33％至40％）。采用如此快速的方法，这些家庭中的许多成员将很容易获得，这无疑会引起数位合成化学家的注意，以及用于使用这些核心在药物开发中使用这些核心的药物。 我们还将开发一个不对称版本的Vilsmeier-Haack反应，以产生包含全碳季季中心的分子，例如α，α-二取代的β-氨基酸β-氨基酸和β二甲苯烷。该方法将在V-H/3+2策略中使用，以访问富含对映的多环生物碱。该项目的成功将为尚不可通过现有方法访问的多种非流行非天然氨基酸提供入门，这当然是制药行业和学术研究的最大兴趣。
