A general and convergent route for the synthesis of the 4a-methylhydrofluorene diterpenoids has been established through a common hexahydrofluorenoneintermediate (10) obtained via Pd(0)-catalyzed reductive cyclization of a substituted 2-(2-bromobenzyl) methylene cyclohexane (13). The strategy has been successfully utilized for the synthesis of (±)-taiwaniaquinones D (3) and H (5), (±)-taiwaniaquinol
A very expedient and efficient new route toward taiwaniaquinoids, bearing the 4a-methyltetrahydrofluorene skeleton, is reported. Key steps are the intramolecular Friedel−Crafts alkylation of an aryldiene and the degradative oxidation of a methylenedioxy group; the latter process could also be utilized for building the 2-hydroxy-1,4-benzoquinone unit, which is frequently found in natural products.

A palladium-catalysed intramolecular allylic (hetero)arylation strategy for the synthesis of fused cyclopentenes incorporated with all-carbon quaternary and spiro centres is described. The method is straightforward, shows broad scope, proceeds in synthetically useful yields, and provides a rare means to construct complex cyclopentanoids. The reaction is believed to involve a kinetically unfavourable

A strategy to the 6-5-6 tricyclic scaffold of taiwaniaquinoids was established on the basis of a one-pot thermal ring expansion/4 pi-electrocyclization process. The efficiency of this methodology has been demonstrated through its application in the total synthesis of taiwaniaquinone H, which has been accomplished in three steps and 14% overall yield in a protecting-group-free manner starting from commercially available materials.

Total synthesis of (±)-taiwaniaquinol F (1a) has been accomplished via an efficient Lewis acid-catalyzed Nazarov-type cyclization of aryldiallylcarbinols (±)-2e derived from safranal 7. The methodology works under mild conditions using only 2 mol % of metal triflate as catalyst to afford a previously unknown carbotricyclic core sharing an olefin functionality in excellent yield. The aforementioned
