The structure of gerberinol, isolated from the Indian plant Gerbera lanuginosa, has been elucidated as 3,3'-methylenebis-(5-methyl-4-hydroxy-2H-1-benzopyran-2-one).
Furanoeremophilane has been synthesized from the known ketone, 3,4,4a,5,6,7,8,8a(beta)-octahydro-4a(beta),5(beta)-dimethylnapthalene-2(1H)-one, using oxycyclopropane chemistry in the key sequence for the preparation of the 3-methylfuran moiety.
