The concise and step-economical total syntheses of three hydroxyaurones and one polymethoxyflavone from readily available starting materials is described. A divergent synthetic strategy is employed, which centres on a common chalcone scaffold from which both the aurone and flavone frameworks can be accessed through the use of different oxidative cyclisation methods. These are the first reported total syntheses of these biologically interesting compounds.
