This paper describes a novel approach for the introduction of a C‐1 hydroxyl on the decalin ring system, starting from (−)‐carvone. Utilizing the substratecontrolled Mukaiyama aldol reaction and alkaline cyclization as key steps, the C‐1 oxygenated decalin eudesmane skeleton 2 ′ and its four isomers were synthesized efficiently. Furthermore, X‐ray structural analysis showed that the claimed structure for the natural product is incorrect. Chirality 16:483–485, 2004. © 2004 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
