Abstract
A biomimetic total synthesis of scabellone B is described. Through sequential regioselective introduction of a geranyl group by means of silyl protection, oxidative dimerization, and biomimetic oxo-6π electrocyclization with good cyclization selectivity, a biomimetic approach to scabellone B was achieved in five steps and 32% overall yield.

- 10 Scabellone BEt3N (47 mg, 0.54 mmol) was added to solution of biquinone 6 (100 mg, 0.18 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (5 mL), and the mixture was stirred for 5 min. The mixture was then concentrated by vacuum and purified by column chromatography (silica gel) to give a purple oil; yield: 95 mg (95%); Rf = 0.3 (EtOAc–PE, 1:5).
