The first synthesis of (+)-6'-hydroxyarenarol 3, the proposed biogenetic precursor to popolohuanone E (1), is described. An enantioselective route to key iodide intermediate 12 has been developed allowing the asymmetricsynthesis of the known cis-decalin 22. Conditions which allow the removal of the methyl ether protecting groups on the hydroxyarene leaving the exocyclic methylene moiety in tact have
