Synthetic and Biophysical Studies on the Tridachiahydropyrone Family of Natural Products

This thesis addresses fundamental scientific questions such as: How are complex natural products synthesized in vivo? Can we replicate these conditions in a laboratory environment? What is the biological function of such secondary metabolites? What are the biological origins of chirality? These issu...
