The total synthesis of (-)-scabronine G has been achieved in a concise manner from the (-)-Wieland-Miescher ketone. Scabronine G and its more potent methyl ester (also prepared) display activity as nonpeptidyl inducers of nerve growth factor production. C

A novel synthesis of scabronines, which are related to a broader class of angularly fused tricyclic diterpenoids known as cyathanes, is provided. Scabronine G, its methyl ester derivative, and other analogs have been shown to have neurotrophic activity. T
