The evolution of a strategy to access the family of rearranged spongian diterpenoids harboring a concave-substituted cis-2,8-dioxabicyclo[3.3.0]octan-3-one fragment is described. The approach involves late-stage fragment coupling of a tertiary-carbon radical and an electron-deficient double bond to form vicinal quaternary and tertiary stereocenters with high fidelity. A stereoselective Mukaiyama hydration is the key step in the subsequent elaboration of the cis-2,8-dioxabicyclo[3.3.0]octan-3-one moiety. This strategy was utilized in enantioselective total syntheses of (-)-macfarlandin C and (+)-dendrillolide A. An efficient construction of enantiopure tetramethyloctahydronaphthalenes was developed during the construction of (-)-macfarlandin C.
