Abstract
[reaction in text] The first total synthesis of (+/-)-linderol A, a hexahydrodibenzofuran isolated from Lindera umbellata bark, with potent inhibitory activity on melanin biosynthesis of cultured B-16 melanoma cells was achieved via a 20-step of reaction in 7.64% overall yield starting from 4,6-dimethoxysalicylaldehyde.
