To determine the absolute configuration of the phytocassane group of phytoalexins, the naturally occurring (−)‐phytocassane D was synthesized from the ( R )‐Wieland−Miescher ketone, in an approach based on the preliminary model synthesis of the unnatural (+)‐2‐deoxyphytocassane A. By comparison of their CD spectra with those of synthetic phytocassanes of known absolute configuration, phytocassanes A−E were shown to possess the ent ‐cassane skeleton.
