The synthesis of furofuranoid lignans

An approach to the synthesis of 2,6-diaryl-8-oxo-3,7-dioxabicyclo [3,3,0] octane lignan lactones is presented and then used in the synthesis of the natural products aptosimon and styraxin. The structure of aptosimon has now been confirmed as having a 2,6-diaryl structure rather than the 2,4-diaryl s...
