A general synthetic sequence involving simply prepared starting materials provides rapid access to diverse, novel tricyclic architectures inspired by pleuromutilin. SmII‐mediated radical cyclization cascades of dialdehydes, prepared using a new, one‐pot, copper‐catalyzed double organomagnesium addition to β‐chlorocyclohexenone, proceed with complete sequence selectivity and typically with high diastereocontrol to give analogues of the target core. Our expedient approach (ca. 7 steps) allows non‐traditional, de novo synthetic access to analogues of the important antibacterial that can′t be prepared from the natural product by semisynthesis.
