The acylation of an excess of racemic spirolactone 1 (6,9‐divinyl‐1‐oxaspiro[4.4]nonan‐2‐one) enolate by protected methyl ( S )‐lactate or (–)‐bornyl carbonate occurs with a kinetic resolution. The resulting lactones were alkylated with 1‐iodobenzocyclobutenes to afford compounds that serve as precursors to nonracemic steroids such as 11α‐alkyloxycarbonyl‐11β,13β‐(γ‐carbolactone)‐17β‐vinylgonatri‐1,3,5(10)‐enes.
