Described here is a divergent, biosynthetically inspired synthesis of cochlearol B and ganocin A. Key steps of the synthesis include the chromene unit construction through a biomimetic acid-catalyzed [4 + 2] ring cyclization. A photochemical [2 + 2] cycloaddition was featured to construct the cyclobutane core of cochlearol B. Different skeletal rearrangements of cochlearol B afforded ganocin A, that one of them was Lewis acid mediated epoxide rearrangement and another was DDQ induced cyclobutane formed tetrahydrofuran ring. The described syntheses not only achieved these natural products in an efficient manner, but also provided insight into the biosynthetic relationship between the two different skeletons.
