Abstract

The cyclic guanidine motif, present in complex alkaloids, active pharmaceutical ingredients, and organocatalysts, is discussed beginning with amine guanidinylation and proceeding through numerous cyclization methods. The application of such methods is reviewed in the context of complex alkaloid synthesis.
