Catalytic asymmetric formal total syntheses of both antipodes of sesquiterpene, (+)‐ ar ‐macrocarpene ( 1 ) and (–)‐ ar ‐macrocarpene ( ent ‐ 1 ) has been achieved from 5,5‐dimethyl‐(3‐ p ‐tolyl)cyclohexanone 12 . Enantioenriched compound 12 was obtained in excellent yield with 96 % ee by catalytic enantioselective p ‐tolylboronic acid addition to 5,5‐dimethyl cyclohexen‐2‐one 13 using Rh (I) ‐( S )‐BINAP ( L7 ). Moreover, ent ‐ 12 was achieved in 96 % ee by using Rh (I) ‐( R )‐BINAP ( ent ‐ L7 ).
