Radical measures : A radical coupling reaction, which is proposed to proceed through in situ chlorination of a hydroxy group by Me 3 SiCl, is used to form quaternary carbon centers with amino groups in α position. The reaction can be scaled up and is used in an efficient six‐step total synthesis of (±)‐9,10‐diepi‐stemoamide (see scheme, Cp=cyclopentadienyl, EWG=electron‐withdrawing group).
