title: A formal total synthesis of the sesterterpenoid (+/-)-dysidiolide and approaches to the syntheses of (+/-)-6-epi-, (+/-)-15-epi-, and (+/-)-6,15-bisepidysidiolide.
abstract: A formal total synthesis of the sesterterpenoid (+/-)-dysidiolide (1), a structurally novel sponge metabolite that inhibits the cdc25A protein phosphatase, and approaches to the syntheses of (+/-)-15-epi- (34), (+/-)-6-epi- (36), and (+/-)-6, 15-bisepidysidiolide (39) are described.
