The total syntheses of the polyhydroxylated macrolactone (+)-aspicilin and a diastereoisomer have been achieved via a concise route, starting from the spatially desymmetrized (R',R',R,S)-2,3-butanediacetal-protected butane tetrol 13. The key steps include a regioselective silyl protection of 13 and a stereoselective Lewis acid mediated addition of allyltributylstannane to the equatorially disposed aldehyde of 4. Macrocyclization is achieved using ring closing metathesis, after which selective hydrogenation and protecting group removal yields the natural product.Key words: aspicilin, butanediacetal, desymmetrization, macrolactone, metathesis.

Melotenine A, isolated from Melodinus tenuicaudatus, possesses significant anticancer activity against several human cancer cell lines. The synthesis of (±)-melotenine A was achieved without the use of any protecting groups in 11 steps with an overall yield of 7%. The key steps of our strategy were the Diels–Alder reaction to construct the tetracyclic framework and ring-closing metathesis to form the seven-membered ring of (±)-melotenine A.

A highly convergent and concise total syntheses of (3 R,5 R)-Sonnerlactone and (3 R,5 S) Sonnerlactone from a readily available L-malic acid is described. The following series of reactions such as Barbier allylation, photochemical esterification and Ring Closing Metathesis (RCM) are utilized as key steps to accomplish their syntheses.

A stereoselective total synthesis of an antiproliferative and antifungal natural product, (6 S)-5,6-dihydro-6-[(2 R)-2-hydroxy-6-phenylhexyl]-2 H-pyran-2-one has been accomplished using the Barbier allylation, LiAlH4/LiI mediated syn-stereoselective reduction and olefin ring-closing metathesis (RCM) as the key steps. L-Malic acid was used as a chiral precursor for the construction of syn-1,3-diol moiety of the molecule.

The first total syntheses of ochnaflavone, an asymmetric biflavone consisting of apigenin and luteolin moieties, and the permethyl ether of 2,3,2'',3''-tetrahydroochnaflavone have been achieved. The key steps in the synthesis of ochnaflavone were the formation of a diaryl ether and ring cyclization of an ether-linked dimeric chalcone to assemble the two flavone nuclei. Optimal experimental conditions for the oxidative cyclization to form ochnaflavone were established.
