A convergent approach for the enantioselective construction of an advanced intermediate containing the [5,5,6,6] tetracyclic core framework of the khayanolide-type limonoids was described. The strategy features an acylative kinetic resolution of the benzylic alcohol, a 1,2-Grignard addition and an AcOH-interrupted Nazarov cyclization.
