Ciguatoxin: developing the methodology for total synthesis

Abstract

Covering: up to 2009

The ciguatoxins are sodium channel toxins from the marine dinoflagellate Gambierdiscus toxicus, isolated in 1984. In this review, we summarize the principal concepts and recently developed methodologies for the synthesis of the ciguatoxins, including C–C bond formation by silylacetylene and cobalt-mediated cyclization.
