A short synthesis of neolignans with a dihydrobenzo[b]furan skeleton is described. The strategy is based on a ring-closing metathesis to produce benzo[f][1,2]oxasilepines which are condensed with aromatic aldehydes in a modified Sakurai-Hosomi reaction. Natural dihydrodehydrodiconiferyl alcohol (1) and 3-0-demethyldihydrodehydrodiconiferyl alcohol (2) have been prepared in this way.

Structural revision of lawsonicin, a natural product of Lawsonia alba, is reported based upon comparison of its spectral data with that of the naturally occurring dihydrobenzo[b]furan neolignan (rac)-trans-dihydrodehydrodiconiferyl alcohol, which is found to be identical. A concise synthesis of dihydrodehydrodiconiferyl alcohol, via Rh2[S-DOSP]4-catalysed intramolecular C–H insertion, is described.
Six new dihydrobenzofuran lignans, named illiciumlignans AF (compounds 16), along with 15 known compounds (721) were isolated from the branches and leaves of Illicium wardii. The structures of 16 were determined using a combination of 1D and 2D NMR, HR-ESI-MS, and CD spectroscopic data. Illiciumlignan D (4) is the first reported dihydrobenzofuran lignan arabinofuranoside that is derivatized with
