The first enantioselective total synthesis of (+)‐rutamarin ( 1 ) is described. The synthetic route features the highly enantioselective construction of the stereogenic center via the Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation (99% ee ), the facile assembly of quaternary carbon‐centered 3‐substituted side chain and high synthetic efficiency from readily available starting materials. Furthermore, the synthetic strategy could be readily adopted for the synthesis of (+)‐rutamarin analogues.
