Biomimetictotalsyntheses of potent antiviral spirooliganones A and B were achieved with 3% and 2% yield, respectively, in 12 steps from commercially available materials. The synthetic strategy was inspired primarily by the biogenetic hypothesis and was enabled by two independent cascade events: (i) an unprecedented reaction involving aromatic Claisen rearrangement/o-quinone methide formation/hetero-Diels–Alder
The enantioselective syntheses of (−)-spirooliganones A and B have been accomplished in eight steps from commercially available starting materials. Noteworthy transformations include a three-component hetero-Diels–Alder cycloaddition to construct the tetracyclic core of spirooliganones, a Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation, and a tandem oxidative dearomatization/cyclization to build the oxa-spiro
