Abstract
Abstract The first total synthesis of the racemic compound is described. 2-hydroxy-4-methylacetophenone was used as starting material and transformed into the target molecule in 6 steps. The synthetic Turmeronol B displays spectral properties identical to those reported for the natural compound leading to the confirmation of the proposed structure.
