A highly convergent total synthesis of 7',8'-dihydroaigialospirol is described. Key steps of the synthesis include a Nozaki-Hiyama-Kishi (NHK) coupling of an iodoalkyne with an advanced phthalide-aldehyde and a remarkable one-pot acid-mediated global deprotection/spiroacetalization.

The annulation of phthalides with α-alkyl/arylacrylates in the presence of LDA/LHMDS is shown to directly give alkyl/aryl-1-naphthols. The method involving a novel dealkoxycarbonylation obviates the regiochemical issues in the synthesis of polysubstituted naphthalenes, and it forms the key step in

Nine new fungal metabolites, one phthalide derivative, acremonide (1), and eight isocoumarin derivatives, acremonones A-H (2-9), were isolated from the mangrove-derived fungus Acremonium sp. PSU-MA70 together with 10 known compounds. Their structures were determined by NMR analysis. The known 8-deoxytrichothecin

The asymmetric dihydroxylation (AD) of o-cyano cinnamates and styrene derivatives leads to efficient construction of chiral phthalide frameworks in high optical purities. This unique reaction is characterized by unusual synergism between CN and osmate groups resulting in rate enhancement of
