The synthesis of the abeo-abietane-type diterpenoids, i.e., (−)-dichroanal B, (−)-dichroanone, and taiwaniaquinone H, was achieved by using the intramolecular asymmetric Heckreaction. Our synthetic routes required fewer steps and gave a much higher overall yield and ee within shorter steps than those for racemic and antipodal forms reported to date (10, 12, and 13 steps with an overall yield of 50%
