The brominated sesquiterpene aplydactone has been synthesized by a C−H functionalization strategy. In their Communication on page 8187 ff., Y. Zhang and co‐workers demonstrate that conformation fine‐tuning supported by calculations is key to the success of the C−H insertion. The late‐stage C−H functionalization and HAT hydrogenation enabled a concise protecting‐group‐free approach to aplydactone.
