Biomimetic oxidative syntheses of spirodienone and dibenzocyclooctadiene lignans

The work described in my thesis outlines the achiral and chiral synthesis of lignans by cyclisation reactions <I>via</I> oxidation of phenols. The synthesis of achiral lignans <I>via</I> oxidation of the phenolic tandem conjugate addition products to but-2-en-4-olide utilizin...
