An intramolecular FeCl3-catalyzed Michael addition reaction of styrene, a poor nucleophile, onto α,β-unsaturated ketones was developed for the synthesis of highly substituted indene derivatives. The method was further applied to the total synthesis of the sesquiterpene natural products (±)-jungianol and 1-epi-jungianol.
