Abstract
Polycyclic xanthone natural products are a family of polyketides which are characterized by highly oxygenated angular hexacyclic frameworks. In the last decade, there has been a noticeable increase in reports on both synthetic and pharmacological investigations of this class of natural molecules due to their unique chemical structures and biological activities. Most members of this class of molecules show strong activities towards Gram-positive bacteria, including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, potent antifungal activity and antitumour activity. The synthetic studies of some members of this class of natural products is summarized.
