Popis: A common precursor, tetronic acid, was used in the synthesis of several vulpinic acids and pulvinic acids, which are pigments found in several lichens and mushrooms. The key features of this method are a two-step alkylidenation of benzyl tetronate and a Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling. The synthesis of several natural products, vulpinic acid, pinastric acid, xerocomic acid is described.
