title: Synthetic efforts toward cyathane diterpenoid natural products.
abstract: Covering: 2000 to 2008. Previous review: D. L. Wright and C. R. Whitehead, Org. Prep. Proced. Int., 2000, 32, 309-330. An overview of synthetic efforts toward cyathane diterpenoid natural products from the year 2000 to present is provided. The emphasis of this review is the various ring-constructing and stereoforming strategies employed in these synthetic routes.
