An efficient and concise asymmetric synthesis of (R)-(+)-ar-curcumene, (R)-4,7-dimethyl-l-tetralone, and their enantiomers was accomplished. The key step to construct the stereogenic benzylmethyl centers of these natural products is the cobalt-catalyzed a

The enantioselective synthesis of both isomers of ar-himachalene has been achieved starting from enantiomerically pure citronellal and p-methyl α-methyl styrene as an application of a chiral pool and chirality induction approach, respectively. The key reactions involved in the synthesis include the Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation for the induction of chirality at benzylic carbon bearing the methyl group and the use of a hypervalent iodine reagent or trimethylsilyldiazomethane (TMSCHN2) for the six to seven membered ring expansion.
