Oxidative cyclizations are important transformations that occur widely during natural product biosynthesis. The transformations from acyclic precursors to cyclized products can afford morphed scaffolds, structural rigidity and biological activities. Some of the most dramatic structural alterations in natural product biosynthesis occur through oxidative cyclization. In this review, we examine the different strategies used by Nature to create new intra-(inter-)-molecular bonds via redox chemistry. The review will cover both oxidation- and reduction-enabled cyclization mechanisms, with an emphasis on the former. Radical cyclizations catalyzed by P450, nonheme iron, α-KG dependent oxygenases and radical SAM enzymes are discussed to illustrate the use of molecular oxygen and S-adenosylmethionine to forge new bonds at unactivated sites via one-electron manifolds. Nonradical cyclizations catalyzed by flavin-dependent monooxygenases and NAD(P)H-dependent reductases are covered to show the use of two-electron manifolds in initiating cyclization reactions. The oxidative installation of epoxides and halogens into acyclic scaffolds to drive subsequent cyclizations are separately discussed as examples of “disappearing” reactive handles. Lastly, oxidative rearrangement of rings systems, including contractions and expansions will be covered.
