Abstract
The efficient total synthesis of lycojaponicumin A (1) has been accomplished for the first time. The remarkable features of this novel strategy include the following: (1) rapid construction of tricyclic intermediate 4 through a regio- and stereoselective semipinacol ring expansion, which simplified the construction of rings A and B of 1; (2) the subsequent regio- and stereoselective formation of the highly strained rings C-E of 1 through a tandem oxa-hetero [3 + 2] cycloaddition/N-cycloalkylation.

Abstract
The first synthesis of the heterocyclic marine natural product, acremolin, is reported along with the revision of the structure from a 1H-azirine to a substituted N(2),3-ethenoguanine (5-methyl-7-isopropyl-4,5-dihydroimidazo[2,1-b]purine). Additional properties of acremolin are also described including its (1)H-(15)N-HMBC and fluorescence spectra.
