title: Biomimetic total syntheses of linderaspirone A and bi-linderone and revisions of their biosynthetic pathways.
abstract: Simple exposure to sunlight is sufficient for triggering photochemical [2 + 2] cycloaddition-Cope or radical rearrangement cascades in the naturally occurring methyl linderone, leading to efficient biomimetic total syntheses of linderaspirone A and bi-linderone, two recently discovered bioactive spirocyclopentenedione natural products.
