An efficient and concise stereoselective synthesis towards the antimalarial (−)‐Gomphostenin, starting with the enantiomerically pure Wieland–Miescher ketone, is reported. The key transformations of the convergent synthesis involved a stereoselective reductive allylation, Palladium‐catalyzed Saegusa–Ito oxidation, Babler–Dauben oxidative rearrangement, and Wittig olefination reactions. The structure and absolute stereochemistry were determined by X‐ray analysis.
