Thirty of the thirty‐five carbon atoms of the acetogenin (+)‐parviflorin ( 3 , also named squamocin E) in this highly convergent synthesis derive from one building block, the readily accessible alcohol 1 . The remaining five have their origin in an alkyne obtained from lactic acid. The key step of this general strategy to bis(tetrahydrofuran) acetogenins is a Ru‐catalyzed Alder–ene coupling of the alkyne with a bis(tetrahydrofuran) made from two units of 1 .
