The formal divergent synthesis of natural products (-)-warburganal and synthesis of (+)-isodrimenin has been developed from α-hydroxy β,γ-unsaturated aldehyde I, which was easily prepared from available (+)-sclareolide in 5 steps. Reduction of intermediate I to II an aldehyde reduction provides a 10-step access to (-)-warburganal, while oxidation of I to III allylic oxidation and hemiacetalization facilitates a 9-step synthesis of (+)-isodrimenin.

Twelve drimanes, including polygodial (1), isopolygodial (2), drimenol (3), confertifolin (4), and isodrimenin (5), were obtained from natural sources. Semi-synthetic derivatives 6-12 were obtained from 1 and 2, and cytotoxic activity was evaluated in vitro against cancer cell lines (HT-29, MDA-MB231, DHF, MCF-7, PC-3, DU-145, and CoN). IC50 values were determined at concentrations of 12.

Incubation of confertifolin and isodrimenin with Mucor plumbeus, Aspergillus niger or Rhizopus arrhizus gave in good yields the corresponding 3 beta-hydroxy derivatives. From isodrimenin, the known natural 7 alpha-hydroxy derivative (futronolide) was also obtained and its structure was definitely established by X-ray crystallographic study of its acetate derivative.
