The key steps were: Stille coupling reaction of the farnesyl unit with the electron-rich phenolic segment; hydroxy-directed selective epoxidation of the farnesyl chain along with concomitant phenol-driven intramolecular regio- and diastereoselective ring closure to the corresponding hydroxybenzopyran; and regioselective formylation followed by in situ reductive lactonization.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">24</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2.5
