The synthesis of pyrano-agarofurans is described using as key step the stereoselective epoxidation of a 6a-hydroxy-1,2,3,4,6,7,8,8a-octahydronaphtalene derivative 8 controlled by the configuration of the allylic alcohol at C-6.

✦ Synopsis
The asymmetric synthesis of a template decalin precursor in the synthesis of polyhydroxylated agarofuran sesquiterpenes is described via a Lewis acid catalysed addition of furan to an activated cyclohexenone directed by an adjacent chiral ketal moiety.
