Bleomycin is an important antibiotic for the treatment of cancer. Now the completion of the total synthesis of the aglycon 1 from bleomycin A 2 , the major component of bleomycin, has been achieved. The decisive steps are the construction of the pyrimidine part by an inverse‐electron‐demand Diels–Alder reaction and the diastereoselective addition of a stannous enolate to an imine group.
