Abstract
Trans-iso-α-acid is one of the main contributors to the bitter taste of fresh beer and is known to transform into various derivatives during beer aging. However, structural characterization of the derivatives has been a challenging task because of the formation of too many components. Herein, we report that most of the transformation products of trans-iso-α-acid, isolated in this study in only small quantities by HPLC, can be structurally analyzed with the crystalline sponge method. Thirteen compounds, including eight that were previously unreported, have been successfully isolated and analyzed with complete assignment of their absolute configuration. This provides an improved understanding of the chemical transformations that occur during beer aging.

Abstract
The first total synthesis of carthamin (3), a historic natural red pigment, has been achieved. The molecular structure was efficiently constructed by assembling two equivalents of the in situ generated lithiated monomers and triisopropyl orthoformate. This synthesis confirms the structure proposed in 1996.
