The carbon framework of azadirachtin ( 1 ) has been prepared enantioselectively: The synthesis of compounds 2 a – c follows two novel cascade sequences based on intramolecular radical reactions and acid‐mediated redox chemistry. Such advanced intermediates should allow access to 1 through appropriate functional‐group manipulations.
