The integration of various metal‐catalyzed reactions into a one‐pot processes opens an unprecedentedly short and efficient route to the odoriferous alkaloid ( R )‐(+)‐muscopyridine. Importantly, it is shown how metathesis can be used for a most convenient “self‐clearance” of a product mixture (see scheme; OTf=CF 3 SO 3 ).
