Dibenzylbutanolide lignans including cordigerines were synthetized and transformed in the corresponding diarylbutane lignans which were submitted to non-phenolic oxidative coupling conditions by using RuO2 or Tl2O3 in trifluoroacetic medium to give deoxyschizandrins.A concurently aryl-benzyl coupling leads to the formation of the corresponding phenyltetralin of which the structure was confirmed by total synthesis.
