| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Artificial total syntheses of precious bioactive molecules that are included in medicinal mushrooms effective for prevention and treatment of dementia, and red algae unused as a resource, as well as their bioactivities against neuronal cells were studied. A divergent synthetic method to afford a variety of mushroom-derived natural products with different structures were developed. Some of the synthetic compounds exhibited neuroprotection against endoplasmic reticulum stress-dependent cell death, which is considered to be one of the causes for dementia. Furthermore, a structure-activity relationship for neuroprotection was elucidated for the first time. In addition, regarding the red algae-derived natural products, a highly-stereocontrolled synthetic method to establish all stereochemistries in the molecules were developed, and the unknown structures of natural products were identified.
