  1. Abstract Described herein are the first total syntheses of (±)‐dracocephalone A (1) and (±)‐dracocequinones A (4) and B (5). The synthesis was initially envisioned as proceeding through an intramolecular isobenzofuran Diels–Alder reaction, a strategy that eventually evolved into a Lewis acid‐promoted spirocyclization. This highly diastereoselective transformation set the stage fortrans‐decalin formation and a late‐stage Suárez oxidation that produced a [3.2.1] oxabicycle suited for conversion to1. Brønsted acid‐mediated aromatization, followed by a series of carefully choreographed oxidations, allowed for rearrangement to a [2.2.2] oxabicycle poised for conversion to4and5.
