✦ Synopsis
A convergent enantioselective synthesis of ()-royleanone (1) is described starting from enantiomerically pure (S)-3-hydroxy-2-isopropyl-5-tert-butylsulfinyl-p-benzoquinone, which is readily available from 3-isopropyl-1,2,4-trimethoxybenzene and 1,3,3-trimethyl-2-vinylcyclohexene. The key step is a tandem asymmetric Diels ± Alder reaction/pyrolytic sulfoxide elimination process.
