A short synthesis of neolignans with a dihydrobenzo[b]furan skeleton is described. The strategy is based on a ring-closing metathesis to produce benzo[f][1,2]oxasilepines which are condensed with aromatic aldehydes in a modified Sakurai-Hosomi reaction. Natural dihydrodehydrodiconiferyl alcohol (1) and 3-O-demethyldihydrodehydrodiconiferyl alcohol (2) have been prepared in this way. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart.
