(+)-Bicyclogermacrene is a strained bicyclic and common sesquiterpene found in several essential oils. A short and good yielding synthesis of bicyclogermacrene proceeding in seven steps is reported. This terpene is used as key platform intermediate for a biomimetic access to several aromadendrene sesquiterpenoids, such as ledene, viridiflorol, palestrol, and spathulenol. Furthermore, bicyclogermacrene is shown to be the terpene component in the synthesis of the meroterpenoids psiguadial A, C, and D. Let nature be your guide! A concise synthesis of the terpene (+)-bicyclogermacrene enables its use as a platform for a fast access to a range of different terpenoids of the aromadendrene family and meroterpenoids of the psiguadial family (see scheme).

(+)-Spathulenol was prepared for the first time in three reaction steps from (+)-aromadendrene by two subsequent ozonizations the second of which was regio- and stereoselective, followed by a wittig reaction.The overall recycle yield was 13percent.
