A substrate‐controlled asymmetric total synthesis of (+)‐bermudenynol, a compact and synthetically challenging C 15 Laurencia metabolite that contains several halogen atoms, is reported. The oxocene core, which contains a vinyl chloride, was constructed by an efficient and highly stereoselective intramolecular amide enolate alkylation (IAEA). This result showcases the broad utility of the IAEA methodology as a useful alternative for cases in which the ring‐closing metathesis is inefficient.
