TL;DR: A new enantiomeric pair of spirodiketones, (+)- and (-)-denobilone A (1 and 2), three new phenanthrene derivatives (3-5), and three new biphenanthrenes (22-24), along with 11 known phenanthene derivatives (6-16), five known bibenzyl derivatives (17-21), and four known biphenAnthrenes
Abstract: A new enantiomeric pair of spirodiketones, (+)- and (-)-denobilone A (1 and 2), three new phenanthrene derivatives (3-5), and three new biphenanthrenes (22-24), along with 11 known phenanthrene derivatives (6-16), five known bibenzyl derivatives (17-21), and four known biphenanthrenes (25-28), were isolated from Dendrobium nobile. The structures of 1-5 and 22-24 were elucidated using comprehensive spectroscopic methods. (+)-Denobilone and (-)-denobilone A (1 and 2) were isolated as a pair of enantiomers by chiral HPLC. The absolute configurations of (+)- and (-)-denobilone A (1 and 2) were determined by comparing their experimental and calculated electronic circular dichroism spectra. The absolute configuration of denobilone B (3) was determined by X-ray crystallographic analysis. The inhibitory activities of all compounds against nine phytopathogenic fungi and three cancer cell lines were evaluated.

TL;DR: A mild, general, and transition-metal-free protocol for the synthesis of 9,10-dihydrophenanthrenes is reported, leading to the formation of 9-aryl-9, 10-diverse derivatives in moderate to good yields.
