We report the total synthesis of the furanobutenolide-derived diterpenoid (+)-ineleganolide. The synthetic approach relies on a convergent strategy based on the coupling of two enantioenriched fragments, which are derived from (-)-linalool and (+)-norcarvone, respectively. A high-yielding, one-step Michael addition and aldol cascade furnishes a pentacyclic framework as a single diastereomer, thereby overcoming previous challenges in controlling stereochemistry. The endgame features an O<sub>2</s ...[more]
