The cleavage of a C−C bond is a complexity generating process, which complements oxidation and cyclisation events in the biosynthesis of terpenoids. This process leads to increased structural diversity in a cluster of related secondary metabolites by modification of the parent carbocyclic core. In this review, we highlight the diversifying effect of C−C bond cleavage by examining the literature related to seco ‐labdanes—a class of diterpenoids arising from such C−C bond cleavage events.
