Total syntheses of the dimeric tetrahydroxanthone natural products secalonic acids A and D are described. Key steps involve kinetic resolution of the tetrahydroxanthone core structure using homobenzotetramisole catalysis and late-stage copper(I)-mediated homodimerization of complex aryl stannane monomers.
