The use of benzothiazenes for the formal total synthesis of erogorgiaene and stereoselective total syntheses of two diastereomers of this natural product is described. In particular, the stereochemical course of a radical cyclization anticipated to give the correct relative stereochemistry for the synthesis of erogorgiaene is discussed utilizing both experimental and computational data.
