A domino sequence involving various MoCl(5)-mediated oxidations followed by trapping and supposed [3,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement provides a fast access to the full carbon skeleton of metasequirin-B. A variety of different moieties R(1) and R(2) are tolerated.

Mo(VI) and Mo(V) salts both react selectively with Hantzsch esters to produce substitute pyridines in good-to-excellent yield (75-99%). The remarkable reactivity and selectivity of MoOCl(4) under reflux of acetonitrile and MoCl(5) in dichloromethane at room temperature encouraged us to propose

The strong oxidative power of molybdenum pentachloride gives rise to an efficient oxidative C-C bond formation of benzil derivatives to the corresponding 9,10-phenanthrenequinones. A highly complementary method to previous approaches was developed. The required derivatives are accessible in a modular
