Several representative enantioselective alkaloid total syntheses and related methodologies will be discussed.  Of particular interest to these programs is the development of unifying strategies guided by biogenetic considerations for each alkaloid family of interest. These syntheses feature new stereo- and chemoselective reactions that enable maximum use of the inherent chemistry of intricate intermediates. Specific examples detailing strategic C-H functionalization and its application in complex settings will be discussed.
