neurite outgrowth might constitute a valuable approach for the non‐invasive medical treatment of neurodegenerative diseases. With the aid of a bifunctional building block, the total syntheses of a group of pyridone polyenes originally produced by entomopathogenic fungi was achieved (see picture). All of these natural products displayed neuritogenicactivity in the PC‐12 cell line.
