Several Hasubanan alkaloids have been synthesized in the past decades, however a divergent approach to access the 3 subclasses of such natural products has not been reported yet. Here, the authors show the enantioselective total syntheses of four representative members via a unified strategy leading to the three topologically different classes of alkaloids.
