The first total synthesis of the architecturally complex hetisine‐type heptacyclic C 20 ‐diterpenoid alkaloids (±)‐spirasine IV and XI is reported. The A/F/G/C tetracyclic skeleton with the challenging N−C6 and C14−C20 linkages was efficiently constructed by an intramolecular azomethine‐ylide‐based 1,3‐dipolar cycloaddition with unusual regioselectivity. SmI 2 ‐mediated free‐radical addition to the arene moiety without prior dearomatization and a stereoselective intramolecular aldol reaction further enabled rapid access to the hetisine core, providing a bicyclo[2.2.2]octane ring with a new oxygen substitution pattern.
