The highlights of the present work includes use of (+)-(R)-Pulegone as a chiral-pool starting material, ring-closing metathesis, allylic oxidation and stereoselective cyclopropanation. In addition, a new analogue of Nardoaristolone B (minor product from the final step) was isolated in pure form and fully characterized with the help of single-crystal X-ray analysis.</p>},

	Banistenosides A and B possessing a unique {\textquoteleft}{\textquoteleft}azepino(1,2-a)tetrahydro-beta-carboline{\textquoteright}{\textquoteright} carbon framework were isolated from the stem of Banisteriopsis caapi and showed MAO-A inhibition. Herein, we report the total synthesis of dibenzyl derivative of the untouched natural product in the last two decades, Banistenoside B. The key steps involve construction of 6.5.6.7 tetracyclic core using Pictet-Spengler reaction and intramolecular amide coupling. The stereoselective glycation was achieved through Hotha{\textquoteright}s protocol using gold catalyst, and silver triflate in the late stage of synthesis. The stereochemistry of most of the essential compounds were confirmed by X-ray crystallography.</p>
