Eutypa lata

A detailed study on the catalytic use of Pd/TPPTS catalyst in aqueous Sonogashira couplings revealed, that it is possible to obtain unsymmetrical diynes with moderate to good yields in aqueous methanol, with Cul as promoter and Et2NH as base (Scheme 6.18) [44]. The same authors describe a short synthesis of Eutypine, which is an antibacterial substance isolated from the culture medium of Eutypa lata. The fungus E. lata is held responsible for a vinyard disease known as eutyposis, so obviously this synthesis is of great interest. 

Isol. from the fungus Eutypa lata. No phys. props, reported. 

Isol. from Eutypa lata, Halocyphina villosa and... 

The compound eutypine is an antibacterial agent isolated from the fungus Eutypa lata. This fungus results in a disease common to vineyards called eutyposis. Give a sequence of reactions that will take the following reactant and give eutypine when the other reactants used in the sequence are acetylene and acetone.
