Strategies and tactics associated with the total synthesis of hybrid natural products are discussed. The target is ravidomycin (2), one of the gilvocarcin-class antitumor antibiotics with an aryl C-glycoside structure. The first total synthesis of 2, which was achieved along similar lines of that of gilvocarcin V (1), served for the determination of the relative as well as the absolute stereochemistry of 2. Also revealed was a limitation of the synthetic scheme so long as the amino sugar congener was concerned. A preliminary result is discussed on the [2+2+2] approach that relies on the ready availability of various benzocyclobutene derivatives via regioselective [2+2] cycloaddition of α-alkoxybenzynes and ketene silyl acetals.

The total synthesis of dysinosin A, a novel member of the aeruginosin group of marine natural products is discussed. The stereocontrolled synthesis also confirms the proposed structure and absolute stereochemistry of the natural product.

The structures and absolute stereochemistry of three new metabolites isolated from Xenia species of soft corals have been determined by spectroscopic study and chemical correlation with known natural products. The new metabolites are: (1S,2R,4R,4aS,5Z,8aR)-1,2-epoxy-4-isopropyl-1,6-dimethyl-1,2,3,4,4a,7,8,8a-octahydronaphthalene (4), (1E,4R,4aR,5S,6R,8aR)-5,6-epoxy-4-isopropyl-6-methyl- 3,4,4a,5,6,7,8,8a-octahydronaphthalene-1-methanol acetate (5) and (1E,5Z,4R,4aR,8aR)-4-isopropyl-6-methyl-3,4,4a,7,8,8a- hexahydronaphthalene-1-methanol (6).
