15-Oxopuupehenoic acid is a new merosesquiterpenoid isolated in 2009 by Crews group from the crude sponge extracts prioritized a Papua New Guinea collection of Hyrtios sp. Its possible structure was deduced to be tetracyclic chromanones 1a~1b or benzo[c]oxepin-1(3H)-ones 1c~1d based on the spectra data, and later determinded to be 1a by analysis of its gHMBC correlations spectra. Recently Alvarez-Manzaneda and Chahboun group obtained 1a by chemical synthesis which spectra data did not match well with those of natural 15-oxopuupehenoic acid. We started from R-(-)-carvone and approched its possible structure 1b through a convergent coupling-cyclization strategy. Our sythesis featured Suzuki carbonylative coupling reaction and KOH promoted intramolecular cyclization reaction to construct the unique chromanone subunit. The spectra data of synthetic 1b did not match well with those of natural 15-oxopuupehenoic acid either which indicated its structure needed revision.
