The first total synthesis of (±)‐Celaphanol A was accomplished starting from α‐cyclocitral and 3,4‐dimethoxy benzyl chloride in six steps. The intramolecular cyclization with BF 3 ·Et 2 O and enolization in t ‐BuOK/ t ‐BuOH were the key steps. The process of intramolecular cyclization afforded an all‐ cis isomer intermediate for synthesis of aromatic tricyclic diterpenes.
