The first total synthesis of parvifloron F, a bioactive highly oxidized abietane diterpene, was achieved. The abietane skeleton was constructed by Lewis acid promoted cyclization. Preliminary structure-activity relationship correlations were established for the synthetic intermediates against human tumor cell lines. Certain compounds showed unique selective antiproliferative activity against triple-negative breast cancer. The oxidation level of the abietane ring affected the selectivity.
