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 Journal of organic chemistry, 75(17), 6043-6045 (2010-08-28)
A palladium-catalyzed addition of arylboronic acids to phthalaldehyde, followed by an intramolecular lactonization to access 3-substituted phthalides, is described. The procedure tolerates a series of functional groups, such as methoxyl, fluoro, chloro, and trifluoromethyl groups. It represents a procedure for

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

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
