First total synthesis of cajanolactone A and cajanonic acid A has been achieved through steps of anion-anion condensations, cyclization, Williams etherification, selective demethylation, 1,3-sigmatropic rearrangement and hydrolysis. This work provides an efficient method for future cajanonic acid A derivatives synthesis.
