Popis: The dolabellane-type diterpene dictyoxetane represents a significant challenge to synthetic organic chemistry. Methodology directed towards the total synthesis of naturally occurring (+)-dictyoxetane is reported. Catalytic asymmetric synthesis of the trans-hydrindane ring system is achieved through chemoselective deoxygenation of the Hajos-Parrish ketone. An alternative to the Garst-Spencer furan annulation is developed for the synthesis of a 2,5-dimethyl, tetrasubstituted furan, employing a tandem 5-exo-dig alcohol to alkyne cyclisation/aromatisation reaction as a key step. The (4+3) cycloaddition reaction of an oxyallyl cation with a tetrasubstituted furan is established on a cyclohexanone-derived model system, and a range of related (4+3) cycloadditions investigated on a homochiral, trans-hydrindane-fused furan, where regio- and diastereoselectivity is required for the natural product synthesis. In an alternative (4+2) Diels-Alder approach, a C
