Abstract
Two different strategies are presented to synthesize mollugin, based upon a close investigation of possible natural precursors. The best total synthesis of mollugin, a natural product isolated from rubiaceous herbs, is achieved in an overall yield of 61% starting from 1,4-dihydroxynaphthalene-2-carboxylic acid. The key reaction is the prenylation and spontaneous pyran ring formation. Subsequent oxidation of the intermediate 3,4-dihydromollugin with DDQ afforded mollugin.
