The chemical synthesis of natural products serves to drive innovation in, and deepen our fundamental understanding of, organic and organometallic chemistry. In order to enable the preparation of bioactive molecules with increased complexity, it is imperative to develop both the synthetic tools and the synthetic logic for assembling molecules with complex, stereochemically-rich polycyclic frameworks. One class of targets that challenges existing strategies and methods for chemical synthesis are the diterpenoid alkaloids. This seminar will describe our latest progress in target-directed synthesis endeavors towards this complex family of natural products.<br/> <br/>
