Two catalytic cascade cyclization methods (radical and cationic) to obtain aromatic polycyclic diterpenes hydroxylated at C3 starting from aromatic epoxypolyprenes were developed. The catalytic use of the Lewis superacid bismuth triflate produces a good yield of cyclized 2 from epoxypolyprene 3. This research may well direct future efforts to the synthesis of bioactive natural products.
