A general strategy for the synthesis of hexahydrodibenzopyrans (HHDBPs) is illustrated in the enantioselective total synthesis of (+)‐machaeriol D. In the key step, an S N 2′ reaction of an aryl cyanocuprate with a silyl enol ether of an optically active α,β‐epoxycyclohexanone enabled the construction of the four stereocenters of the natural product with high regio‐ and stereoselectivity (see scheme; R=methoxymethyl). TMS=trimethylsilyl, TBS= tert ‐butyldimethylsilyl.
