The title compound has been synthesised in racemic form by a biomimetic reaction sequence. The two enantiomers were resolved by column chromatography of one of the synthetic intermediates. On the basis of CD results a tentative absolute configuration for the synthetic enantiomers and natural 3′,4-di-O-methylcedresin is proposed.
