“…In 2015, our group accomplished the divergent total syntheses of atisane‐type diterpenoids, including (±)‐crotobarin, (±)‐crotogoudin, (±)‐atisane‐3β,16α‐diol, and (±)‐16 S ,17‐dihydroxyatisan‐3‐one (Schemes –) . Crotobarin ( 51 ) and crotogoudin ( 54 ), isolated from Croton barorum and Croton goudotii , belong to the rare ent ‐3,4‐seco‐atisane family of diterpenoids and possess a unique tetracyclic framework with five stereocenters including three contiguous quaternary carbon centers.…”
