An enantioselective synthesis of the AB ring system common to the majority of the Schisandra nortriterpenoid natural products is reported. Key steps include a stereospecific ring opening of a trisubstituted epoxide and the use of a β-lactone to enable installation of the gem-dimethyl functionality of the B ring. An acetalization strategy played a key role in a late-stage biomimetic AB ring bicyclization.
