Using a modular approach : A concise synthesis of callystatin A has been developed. The modular pathway provides access to the highly unsaturated skeleton of the leptomycin natural products by using a complex titanium‐mediated reductive alkyne–alkyne cross‐coupling reaction as the key transformation (see scheme; TBS= tert ‐butyldimethylsilyl).
