The enantiomeric form, 1R, of the structure (1S) assigned to the phytotoxic natural product phomentrioloxin has been synthesized in seven steps from the homochiral cis-1,2-dihydrocatechol 3. These studies reveal that the true structure of phomentrioloxin

A series of 28 analogues of the phytotoxic geranylcyclohexentriol (-)-phomentrioloxin A (1) has been synthesized through cross-couplings of various enantiomerically pure haloconduritols or certain deoxygenated derivatives with either terminal alkynes or borylated alkenes. Some of these analogues display modest herbicidal activities, and physiological profiling studies suggest that analogue 4 inhibits photosystem II in isolated thylakoids in vitro.
