A nitrosopurine ene reaction easily assembles the asmarine pharmacophore and transmits remote stereochemistry to the diazepine‐purine hetereocycle. This reaction generates potent cytotoxins which exceed the potency of asmarine A (1.2 μ M IC 50 ) and supersede the metabolites as useful leads for biological discovery.
