A novel and efficient strategy to build α-benzylic quaternary cyclopentanones with excellent enantioselectivities (up to 96% ee) and high yields (up to 99% yield) has been developed, and its application demonstrated by the first catalytic asymmetric total synthesis of (-)-1,14-herbertenediol and the formal synthesis of (-)-aphanorphine. Herbertene rides again: A novel and efficient strategy to build α-quaternary cyclopentanones with high yields and excellent enantioselectivities (up to 96% ee) has been developed.
