This letter describes a two-step photochemical rearrangement of a conjugated pentaene. The results provide evidence that the marine product photodeoxytridachione is formed in two sequential photochemical reactions.

Freedom and control: First insights into the rare programmed iteration of an individual polyketide synthase (PKS) module were obtained from the analysis and mutation of aureothin (1) synthase. The first ketosynthase (KS) domain primes the PKS, allowing intermediate retrotransfer. Addition of a designated loading module results in a complete loss of iteration. The downstream KS functions as a gatekeeper for correct chain length. Copyright

The crispatenes and SNF4435 C&D are complex polypropionate derived natural products. The core structures of these compounds along with a complex unnatural structure can be easily prepared from a common polyene precursor simply by variation of the reaction conditions. The reaction pathways provide insight into the biosynthesis of these complex natural products.
