Abstract
Polycyclic polyprenylated acylphloroglucinols (PPAPs) combine compelling structural complexity with effective biological activity. The total synthesis of Hyperfirin is reported as one linear sequence. Key to this novel modular strategy is to access the bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane-2,4,9-trione framework via transannular acylation of a decorated eight-membered ring, followed by late stage bridgehead substitution. The described route adds flexibility to PPAP construction and broadens the scope of eight-membered ring chemistry.

Abstract
Medicinal compounds from plants include bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane derivatives, the majority of which are polycyclic polyprenylated acylphloroglucinols (PPAPs). Prototype molecules are hyperforin, the antidepressant constituent of St. John's wort, and garcinol, a potential anticancer compound. Their complex structures have inspired innovative chemical syntheses, however, their biosynthesis in plants is still enigmatic. PPAPs are divided into two subclasses, named type A and B. Here we identify both types in Hypericum sampsonii plants and isolate two enzymes that regiodivergently convert a common precursor to pivotal type A and B products. Molecular modelling and substrate docking studies reveal inverted substrate binding modes in the two active site cavities. We identify amino acids that stabilize these alternative binding scenarios and use reciprocal mutagenesis to interconvert the enzymatic activities. Our studies elucidate the unique biochemistry that yields type A and B bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane cores in plants, thereby providing key building blocks for biotechnological efforts to sustainably produce these complex compounds for preclinical development.

Abstract
A unified approach for the construction of the bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane-2,4,9-trione core of polycyclic polyprenylated acylphloroglucinols (PPAPs) was reported. This approach involves a sequential process of two distinct Dieckmann condensation reactions from the linear precursor. Using this method, the divergent total synthesis of the natural products 7-epi-clusianone and 18-hydroxy-7-epi-clusianone and the formal synthesis of sampsonione P were achieved. Additionally, other key steps to realize this strategy include RuCl3-catalyzed oxidative olefin cleavage and Pd-catalyzed Tsuji-Trost decarboxylative allylation. The synthesis indicated that bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane-2,4,9-triones could also be constructed via 6-membered intermediates.

Abstract
Hyperireflexolides A and B were synthesized in six steps via the dearomatization and fragmentation of a simple acylphloroglucinol starting material. The dearomatized acylphloroglucinol undergoes a sequence of oxidative radical cyclization, retro-Dieckmann fragmentation, stereodivergent intramolecular carbonyl-ene reactions, and final α-hydroxy-β-diketone rearrangements to give the target natural products. This sequence is based on a biosynthetic proposal that claims the hyperireflexolides as highly rearranged polycyclic polyprenylated acylphloroglucinols (PPAPs), which is supported by the structural revision of hyperireflexolide B.

Abstract
Nemorosone is a bicyclic polyprenylated acylphloroglucinol derivative originally isolated from Clusia spp. and it can be obtained through chemical synthesis employing different synthetic strategies. Since its discovery, it has attracted great attention both from a biological and chemical viewpoint. In the present article, we attempted to review various chemical and biological topics around nemorosone, with an emphasis on its antiproliferative activities. For this purpose, relevant data was collected from different scientific databases including Google Scholar, PubMed, Scopus and ISI Web of Knowledge. This natural compound has shown activity against several types of malignancies such as leukemia, human colorectal, pancreatic, and breast cancer because it modulates multiple molecular pathways. Nemorosone has both cytostatic and cytotoxic activity and it also seems to induce apoptosis and ferroptosis. Additionally, it has antimicrobial capabilities against Gram-positive bacteria and parasites belonging to genus Leishmania. Its promising antiproliferative pre-clinical effects deserve further attention for anticancer and anti-parasitic drug development and translation to the clinic.

Abstract
Covering: 2011 to 2022The natural world is a prolific source of some of the most interesting, rare, and complex molecules known, harnessing sophisticated biosynthetic machinery evolved over billions of years for their production. Many of these natural products represent high-value targets of total synthesis, either for their desirable biological activities or for their beautiful structures outright; yet, the high sp3-character often present in nature's molecules imparts significant topological complexity that pushes the limits of contemporary synthetic technology. Dearomatization is a foundational strategy for generating such intricacy from simple materials that has undergone considerable maturation in recent years. This review highlights the recent achievements in the field of dearomative methodology, with a focus on natural product total synthesis and retrosynthetic analysis. Disconnection guidelines and a three-phase dearomative logic are described, and a spotlight is given to nature's use of dearomatization in the biosynthesis of various classes of natural products. Synthetic studies from 2011 to 2021 are reviewed, and 425 references are cited.

Abstract
Structurally unique natural products pose biosynthetic puzzles whose solution can inspire new chemical reactions. Herein, we propose a unified biosynthetic pathway towards some complex meroterpenoids—the hyperireflexolides, biyoulactones, hybeanones and hypermonones. This hypothesis led to the discovery of uncatalyzed, intramolecular carbonyl‐ene reactions that are spontaneous at room temperature. We also developed an anionic cascade reaction featuring an α‐hydroxy‐β‐diketone rearrangement and an intramolecular aldol reaction to access four distinct natural product scaffolds from a common intermediate.

Abstract
Hypersampones A-C (1-3), three unprecedented nor-polycyclic polyprenylated acylphloroglucinols (PPAPs), were isolated from Hypericum sampsonii. These compounds represent the first nor-PPAPs with an unexpected tetracyclic 6/5/5/6 ring system. Their structures were assigned through the analysis of detailed spectroscopic data, X-ray crystallography, and electronic circular dichroism calculations. Compound 1 significantly inhibited the accumulation of lipid in an oleic acid-treated HepG2 cell model by suppressing the protein expression of FAS and ACACA at 5 μM.

Abstract
Covering: June 2009 to 2021Natural products containing a phloroglucinol motif include simple and oligomeric phloroglucinols, polycyclic polyprenylated acylphloroglucinols, phloroglucinol-terpenes, xanthones, flavonoids, and coumarins. These compounds represent a major class of secondary metabolites which exhibit a wide range of biological activities such as antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and hypoglycaemic properties. A number of these compounds have been authorized for therapeutic use or are currently being studied in clinical trials. Their structural diversity and utility in both traditional and conventional medicine have made them popular synthetic targets over the years. In this review, we compile and summarise the recent synthetic approaches to the natural products bearing a phloroglucinol motif. Focus has been given on ingenious strategies to functionalize the phloroglucinol moiety at multiple positions. The isolation and bioactivities of the compounds are also provided.

Abstract
The field of biomimetic synthesis seeks to apply biosynthetic hypotheses to the efficient construction of complex natural products. This approach can also guide the revision of incorrectly assigned structures. Herein, we describe the evolution of a concise total synthesis and structural reassignment of hyperelodione D, a tetracyclic meroterpenoid derived from a Hypericum plant, alongside some biogenetically related natural products, erectones A and B. The key step in the synthesis of hyperelodione D forms six stereocentres and three rings in a bioinspired cascade reaction that features an intermolecular Diels-Alder reaction, an intramolecular Prins reaction and a terminating cycloetherification.

Abstract
Daphenylline is a structurally unique member of the triterpenoid Daphniphyllum natural alkaloids, which exhibit intriguing biological activities. Six total syntheses have been reported, five of which utilize aromatization approaches. Herein, we report a concise protecting-group-free total synthesis by means of a novel intramolecular oxidative dearomatization reaction, which concurrently generates the critical seven-membered ring and the quaternary-containing vicinal stereocenters. Other notable transformations include a tandem reductive amination/amidation double cyclization reaction, to assemble the cage-like architecture, and installation of the other two chiral stereocenters via a highly enantioselective rhodium-catalyzed challenging hydrogenation of the diene intermediate (90% e.e.) and an unprecedented remote acid-directed Mukaiyama-Michael reaction of the complex benzofused cyclohexanone (13:1 d.r.).

Abstract
Oxidative degradation and rearrangement of polycyclic polyprenylated acylphloroglucinols (PPAPs) has created diverse families of unique natural products that are attractive targets for biomimetic synthesis. Herein, we report a racemic synthesis of hyperibrin A and its oxidative radical cyclization to give yezo'otogirin C, followed by epoxidation and House-Meinwald rearrangement to give hypermogin D. We also investigated the biomimetic synthesis of norascyronone A via a similar radical cyclization pathway, with unexpected results that give insight into its biosynthesis.

Abstract
Photoinduced chemical transformations have received in recent years a tremendous amount of attention, providing a plethora of opportunities to synthetic organic chemists. However, performing a photochemical transformation can be quite a challenge because of various issues related to the delivery of photons. These challenges have barred the widespread adoption of photochemical steps in the chemical industry. However, in the past decade, several technological innovations have led to more reproducible, selective, and scalable photoinduced reactions. Herein, we provide a comprehensive overview of these exciting technological advances, including flow chemistry, high-throughput experimentation, reactor design and scale-up, and the combination of photo- and electro-chemistry.

Abstract
Polycyclic polyprenylated acylphloroglucinols (PPAPs) share a common bicyclo[3.3.1]alkenone core structure and attract numerous attention from synthetic organic chemists due to their fascinating biological properties and associated synthetic challenges. We present herein that Pd-phosphoramidite catalysts promote the enantioselective dearomative allylic annulation reaction between allyl desoxyhumulones and allylic dicarbonates, affording PPAPs analogues in good yields and enantioselectivities. The reaction likely proceeds through two-step dearomative allylation by Pd, and the C-allylation pathway is the dominant mechanistic model.

Abstract
Garsubellin A is a meroterpene capable of enhancing the enzyme choline acetyltransferase whose decreased level is believed to play a central role in the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease. Due to the potentially useful biological activity together with the novel bridged and fused cyclic molecular architecture, garsubellin A has garnered substantial synthetic interest, but its absolute stereostructure has been undetermined. We report here the first enantioselective total synthesis of (+)‐garsubellin A. Our synthesis relies on stereoselective fashioning of a cyclohexanone framework and double conjugate addition of 1,2‐ethanedithiol that promotes aldol cyclization to build the bicyclic [3.3.1] skeleton. The twelve‐step, protecting group‐free synthetic route has enabled the syntheses of both the natural (−)‐garsubellin A and its unnatural (+)‐antipode for biological evaluations.

Abstract
Photoreaction of enamides tethered to a phenyl ketone leads to either [3+2]-photocycloaddition or Paternò-Büchi reaction. This divergence in chemical reactivity originating from the same excited state was dependent on the reaction temperature. At low temperatures, Paternò-Büchi reaction was preferred, while at higher temperatures there was preference towards formation of [3+2]-photoproduct.

Abstract
Herein we report the first enantioselective total synthesis of 3,5-dimethylorsellinic acid-derived meroterpenoids (-)-berkeleyone A and its five congeners ((-)-preaustinoids A, A1, B, B1, and B2) in 12-15 steps, starting from commercially available 2,4,6-trihydroxybenzoic acid hydrate. Based upon the recognition of latent symmetry within D-ring, our convergent synthesis features two critical reactions: 1) a symmetry-breaking, diastereoselective dearomative alkylation to assemble the entire carbon core, and 2) a Sc(OTf)3 -mediated sequential Krapcho dealkoxycarbonylation/carbonyl α-tert-alkylation to forge the intricate bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane framework. We also conducted our preliminary biomimetic investigations and uncovered a series of rearrangements (α-ketol, α-hydroxyl-β-diketone, etc.) responsible for the biomimetic diversification of (-)-berkeleyone A into its five preaustinoid congeners.

Abstract
The asymmetric total synthesis of five biologically significant polycyclic polyprenylated acylphloroglucinols (PPAPs), including garcinol and cambogin, was achieved through a highly diastereoselective and stereodivergent strategy. Along the way, an efficient cascade Dieckmann cyclization was employed to construct the bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane core in one step. The synthesis provided a general approach toward the chiral endo-type B PPAPs and their C-30 diastereomers in a single sequence, which resolved the challenges of the absolute configuration determination/structural revision of PPAPs bearing exocyclic stereocenters.

Abstract
Reported here are novel formic-acid-mediated rearrangements of dearomatized acylphloroglucinols to access a structurally diverse group of synthetic acylphloroglucinol scaffolds (SASs). Density-functional theory (DFT) optimized orbital and stereochemical analyses shed light on the mechanism of these rearrangements. Products were evaluated by multiplexed activity profiling (MAP), an unbiased platform which assays multiple biological readouts simultaneously at single-cell resolution for markers of cell signaling, and can aid in distinguishing genuine activity from assay interference. MAP identified a number of SASs that suppressed pS6 (Ser235/236), a marker for activation of the mTOR and ERK signaling pathways. These results illustrate how biomimetic synthesis and multiplexed activity profiling can reveal the pharmacological potential of novel chemotypes by diversity-oriented synthesis.

Abstract
A hybrid of dearomatized isoprenylated acylphloroglucinol (DIAP) and monoterpenoid, hypatone A (1), together with its biosynthetic analogues 2-4 is characterized from Hypericum patulum. Structurally, 1 possesses an unprecedented spiro[bicyclo[3.2.1]octane-6,1'-cyclohexan]-2',4',6'-trione core as elucidated by extensive spectroscopic and X-ray crystallographic analyses. Biological studies reveal that compounds 1 and 2-4 produce opposite effects on Cav3.1 low voltage-gated Ca2+ channel, with 1 and 4, respectively, being the most potent Cav3.1 agonist and antagonist from natural products. Further studies suggest that compound 1 and its biogenetical precursor, 2, have the same binding site on Cav3.1 and that the rigid cagelike moiety at C-5 and C-6 is a key structural feature responsible for 1 being an agonist. Furthermore, 1 can normalize the pathological gating of a mutant Cav3.1 channel found in spinocerebellar ataxia 42 (SCA42), a hereditary neurodegenerative disorder with no available therapy. Collectively, our findings provide valuable tools for future studies on Cav3.1 physiology and pathophysiology, as well as afford possible leads for developing new drugs against SCA42, epilepsy, and pain.

Abstract
The bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane architecture is a privileged structural motif found in over 1000 natural products with relevance to neurodegenerative disease, bacterial and parasitic infection, and cancer among others. Despite disparate biosynthetic machinery, alkaloid, terpene, and polyketide-producing organisms have all evolved pathways to incorporate this carbocyclic ring system. Natural products of mixed polyketide/terpenoid origins (meroterpenes) are a particularly rich and important source of biologically active bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane-containing molecules. Herein we detail a fully synthetic strategy toward this broad family of targets based on an abiotic annulation/rearrangement strategy resulting in a 10-step total synthesis of garsubellin A, an enhancer of choline acetyltransferase and member of the large family of polycyclic polyprenylated acylphloroglucinols. This work solidifies a strategy for making multiple, diverse meroterpene chemotypes in a programmable assembly process involving a minimal number of chemical transformations.

Abstract
A biomimetic route to farnesyl pyrophosphate and dimethyl orsellinic acid (DMOA)-derived meroterpenoid scaffolds has yet to be reported despite great interest from the chemistry and biomedical research communities. A concise synthetic route with the potential to access DMOA-derived meroterpenoids is highly desirable to create a library of related compounds. Herein, we report novel dearomatization methodology followed by polyene cyclization to access DMOA-derived meroterpenoid frameworks in six steps from commercially available starting materials. Furthermore, several farnesyl alkene substrates were used to generate structurally novel, DMOA-derived meroterpenoid derivatives. DFT calculations combined with experimentation provided a rationale for the observed thermodynamic distribution of polycyclization products.

Abstract
A bioinspired, Me2AlSEt-promoted domino Dieckmann cyclization via an 8-membered ring intermediate to construct bicyclo[3.3.1]nonanes was developed, and the divergent syntheses of nine complex polycyclic polyprenylated acylphloroglucinols were achieved. This novel domino cyclization tolerates a series of congested substrates, providing a very efficient way to construct diverse polycyclic structures. The selectivity and the advantages of the domino cyclization were studied. Moreover, the structure-activity relationship study leads to the identification of three simplified potent antitumor agents.
