Covering: 1980s–2014 In this study, the biological properties of natural abietane-type
diterpenoids with an aromatic C ring are reviewed. An overview of the synthetic studies of …

Viral infections affect several million patients annually. Although hundreds of viruses are
known to be pathogenic, only a few can be treated in the clinic with available antiviral drugs …

Abstract The abietane-type diterpenoid (+)-ferruginol (1), a bioactive compound isolated
from several plants, has attracted much attention as consequence of its pharmacological …

Many natural products of plant or microbial origins are derived from enzymatic dearomative
oxygenation of 2‐alkylphenolic precursors into 6‐alkyl‐6‐hydroxycyclohexa‐2, 4‐dienones …

Developed synthetic strategies for abietane and icetexane diterpenoids during 2010-present
are described in this review. To date, the [6–6–6]-and [6–7–6]-tricyclic skeletons of …

Simple Summary Abietane diterpenoids are naturally occurring metabolites isolated from a
large variety of plants, and many display antitumor properties. Tanshinones are abietane …

Abstract The abietane-type diterpenoid (+)-ferruginol, a bioactive compound isolated from
New Zealand's Miro tree (Podocarpus ferruginea), displays relevant pharmacological …

The first enantioselective polyene cyclization initiated by a BINOL‐derived chiral N‐
phosphoramide (NPA) catalyzed protonation of an imine is described. The ion‐pair formed …

Abietane diterpenoids are naturally occurring plant metabolites with a broad spectrum of
biological effects including antibacterial, antileishmanial, antitumor, antioxidant, as well as …

Natural products have attracted synthetic chemist's attention from an academic point of view
for a long time. However, natural product synthesis is still essential for confirming the …
