We describe two complementary approaches based on a convergent [4+2] logic toward the synthesis of amorfrutins, cannabinoids, and related plant metabolites. An anionic cascade cyclization employing β-methoxycrotonates and β-chloro-α,β-unsaturated esters yielded amorfrutins in four linear steps and demonstrated utility of β-alkoxycrotonate-derived nucleophiles as functional equivalents of β-ketoester-derived dianions. Analogously, tandem Diels-Alder/retro-Diels-Alder cycloaddition of dimedone-derived bis(trimethylsiloxy)-dienes and α,β-alk
