- Synthesis and biological evaluation of (-)-13,14-dihydroxy-8,11,13-podocarpatrien-7-one and derivatives from (+)-manool
-
13,14-Dihydroxy-8,11,13-podocarpatrien-7-one (1) and a series of ring C aromatic diterpene derivatives were synthesised from (+)-manool (4) and evaluated for their cytotoxic, leishmanicidal and trypanocidal activities. Our results indicated that compound 1 and other podocarpane-type intermediates are cytotoxic. Cleavage of C6-C7 bond of compound 7 improved cytotoxic activity, indicating that, in particular, the 6,7-seco-podocarpane-type compound 20 might serve as a lead compound for further development.

- A short and efficient synthesis of (+)-totarol
-
A concise route to multigram quantities of the antibacterial diterpene (+)-totarol (1) is reported. (-)-Sclareol (2) was converted to the target compound 1 using either a six- or a seven-step sequence, while only three steps were required to access (+)-totarol ( 1) starting from (+)-manool (9) or (+)-13-epi-manool (10), respectively. A novel one-pot intramolecular aldol condensation/α-alkylation protocol served as the key operation for streamlining the syntheses of 1. ARKAT-USA, Inc.

- Semisynthesis of labdane diterpene metabolites from the nudibranch Pleurobranchaea meckelii
-
Two isomeric labdane aldehyde metabolites (1 and 2), first isolated from the skin of the Notaspidean nudibranch Pleurobranchaea meckelii, were synthesized in six steps from manool in 19 and 6% overall isolated yields, respectively.
