TLDR
In this paper, a 12-step synthetic route to (±)-daunomycinone was described, which uses Friedel-Crafts reactions to assemble the ring system; (−)-carminomycinones reacts with diazomethane to give (+)-Daunomycinone.
Abstract
A 12-step synthetic route to (±)-daunomycinone is described which uses Friedel–Crafts reactions to assemble the ring system; (–)-carminomycinone reacts with diazomethane to give (+)-daunomycinone.

A doubly-convergent and regioselective synthesis of (±)-daunomycinone

TL;DR: The monoadduct of benzoquinone to 2,3,5,6-tetramethylidene-7-oxabicyclo[2.2. l]heptane (7) was transformed into (1RS,4RS, 4aSR)-2,3-dimethylidenes-l,4-epoxy-l 2, 3,4,4a,10-hexahydro-8-methoxyanthracene (28) as discussed by the authors.

Selective 19F-Labeling of Functionalized Carboxylic Acids with Difluoromethyl Diazomethane (CF2HCHN2)

TL;DR: The recently developed reagent-CF2 HCHN2 -selectively esterifies carboxyl groups on organic molecules in the presence of other polar functional groups, allowing "last-step" incorporation of a fluorinated ester moiety into organic structures, including bioorganic molecules such as peptides and proteins.
