Within natural product biosynthetic pathways, nature has evolved highly selective catalysts capable of complexity-generating reactions. Leveraging these tools, a suite of catalysts with complementary site- and stereoselectivity have been applied to the oxidative dearomatization of phenolic compounds, enabling one-pot transformations of phenols into various natural products.
