Abstract

(±)‐α and β‐Himachalene, 5 and 6, have been synthesized in a convergent manner from 3,3‐dimethylacrolein (9), the ester enolate 10 and the silyloxypentadienyllithium 7. The key steps are the regioselective γ‐addition of the dienal 13 to 7 and the intramolecular Diels‐Alder addition 15 → 16. Hydrogenolysis of the diethylphosphate group and functionalization at C (5) completed the synthesis of 5 and 6.
