The formal total synthesis of the marine metabolite (+)-calyculin A is reported. The key steps involve (i) the use of Brown allylboration chemistry to control the relative and absolute stereochemistry of homoallylic alcohol arrays, thus setting eight of the desired stereocenters; (ii) Stille coupling methodology in the construction of the cyano tetraene unit of the natural product; and (iii) a modified Cornforth–Meyers approach to the synthesis of the oxazole fragment.Key words: calyculin, marine natural product, phosphatase inhibitor, total synthesis, palladium catalyzed coupling reactions, allylboration reactions, aldol reactions, spiroketal, Cornforth–Meyers oxazole reaction.

Tyrosinase is an enzyme widely distributed in nature, which has multiple functions, especially in the melanin biosynthesis pathway. Despite the few clinically available tyrosinase inhibitors for whitening, a great demand remains for novel compounds with low side effects in terms of potential carcinogenicity and improved clinical efficacy. A natural product, wedelolactone (WEL), with a polyhydroxyl moiety, attracted our attention as a potential tyrosinase inhibitor. Before we studied the biological activity of the natural product, a synthetic methodological research was firstly carried to obtain enough raw material. WEL could be obtained efficiently through palladium-catalyzed boronation/coupling reactions and 2,3-dicyano-5,6-dichlorobenzoquinone (DDQ)-involved oxidative deprotection/annulation reactions. Immediately after, the natural product was proven to be an efficient tyrosinase inhibitor. In conclusion, we developed a mild and efficient approach for the preparation of WEL, and the natural product was disclosed to have anti-tyrosinase activity, which could be widely used in multiple fields.

Strategies and tactics associated with the total synthesis of hybrid natural products are discussed. The target is ravidomycin (2), one of the gilvocarcin-class antitumor antibiotics with an aryl C-glycoside structure. The first total synthesis of 2, which was achieved along similar lines of that of gilvocarcin V (1), served for the determination of the relative as well as the absolute stereochemistry of 2. Also revealed was a limitation of the synthetic scheme so long as the amino sugar congener was concerned. A preliminary result is discussed on the [2+2+2] approach that relies on the ready availability of various benzocyclobutene derivatives via regioselective [2+2] cycloaddition of α-alkoxybenzynes and ketene silyl acetals.
