title: Total synthesis of (+)-strictifolione.
abstract: [reaction: see text] The synthesis of (+)-strictifolione was achieved from 3-phenylproprionaldehyde by using enantioselective allyltitanations to control the stereogenic centers at C6, C4', and C6' and a cross-methathesis to control the configuration of the double bond at C1'-C2'.
