This paper describes how to manage the last steps of the synthetic scheme of agarofurans synthesis according to the configurations obtained at C-4a and C-6 during the functionalization of hexahydronaphthalenones derived from a Wieland-Misher ketone in order to obtain either cis- or trans-nor-agarofurans. Synthesis of nor-agarofurans 20, 24 and 29 are described.
