β¦ Synopsis
Breviones A-E (1-5), allelopathic agents isolated from Penicillium brevicompactum Dierckx, are structurally unique pentacyclic or hexacyclic diterpenoid derivatives. The synthesis of a structurally simplified model compound (8), corresponding to the characteristic spiro-fused CDE ring portion of 1-4, was accomplished by employing sequential, double nucleophilic substitution reactions as the key steps.
