Prompted by the outcome that the synthesized roxbin B was not identical to the natural roxbin B, the structural determination process and spectral data were re-examined, with the finding that roxbin B was very likely to be 1-O-galloyl-2,3-(R);4,6-(S)-bis-O-hexahydroxydiphenoyl-β-d-glucose (cuspinin). Because the (R)-axial chirality is rare in natural products when the hexahydroxydiphenoyl group bridges

Using an atropdiastereoselective oxidative biaryl coupling as the key step, the total synthesis of the ellagitannin natural product sanguiin H-5 is reported. Both organomagnesium and organozinc based metalation methodologies were used to efficiently construct the strained medium-ring core of the natural product.
