We report the enantioselective total syntheses of zeylenol (+)-1, as well as its congeners (-)-7 and 16, and of 3-O-debenzoylzeylenone 28. To this end, a new variant of the Kornblum-DeLaMare rearrangement, which utilises neighbouring-group participation to impart regioselectivity, has been developed. The approach employs photooxygenation of building blocks derived from a microbial arene oxidation product. New light on a Korny rearrangement: Biooxidation of benzoic acid with R. eutrophus B9 gives a dearomatised diene diol acid that allows concise access to the zeylenol and zeylenone family of polyoxygenated cyclohexene natural products. The synthesis employs diene photooxygenation and a new regioselective variant of the Kornblum-DeLaMare endoperoxide fragmentation has been developed (see scheme).

(-)-(3S,4R,5S,7S)-5-Benzoyloxymethyl-6-oxadicyclo-hept-1-ene-3,4-diol 3-benzoate and the two (+)-zeylenol related substances, (-)-(1R,2S,3R,4S)-2-benzoyloxymethylcyclohex-5-ene-1,2,3,4-tetrol 1,4-dibenzoate, and (1R,2S,3R,4S)-2-hydroxymethylcyclohex-5-ene-1,2,3,4-tetrol 1,4-dibenzoate, together with 2'-hydroxy-4,4',6'-trimethoxychalcone, were isolated from the rhizomes of Kaempferia angustifolia, in addition to crotepoxide, boesenboxide and (+)-zeylenol.The rhizomes of an unnamed Kaempferia species have also been found to contain the zeylenol derivatives. - Keywords: Kaempferia angustifolia; Kaempferia sp.; Zingiberaceae; (-)-pipoxide; oxygenated cyclohexane; (+)-zeylenol.
