Regioselective reduction of an unsymmetrical imide carbonyl group and acid-catalyzed stereoselective intramolecular cyclization were the key features involved. The directing group to induce asymmetry was finally detached via the corresponding iodide by using tributyltin hydride chemistry.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">19</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2.06
