In their Review on page 6367 ff., Phillip Grant and Margaret Brimble examine the isolation, bioactivity, and total synthesis of seco ‐labdane diterpenoids—a class of diterpenoid arising from C−C bond cleavage events. In doing so, the importance of biosynthetic C−C bond cleavage to the generation of structural diversity is highlighted.
