The asymmetric total synthesis of (-)-sila-mesembranol, the silicon analog of (-)-mesembranol, was achieved in 3.3% yield over 11 steps. The chiral silicon center was enantioselectively constructed through the asymmetric expansion of a silacyclobutane ring. The synthetic (-)-sila-mesembranol exhibited better antidepressant effects in mice compared to its carbon counterpart.
