Abstract
Highly unsaturated pyrone polyketides ('HUPPs') are a growing family of natural products derived from polyene precursors, often through pericyclic or ionic reaction cascades. We describe our extensive studies on this class of compounds, which have so far resulted in the total synthesis of 17 of its members.
