A total synthesis of the threo / trans / erythro ‐type acetogenin mosin B and one of its diastereomers has been achieved. The carbon skeleton is assembled in a convergent fashion from two segments (a THF ring segment and a γ ‐lactone segment) through the Nozaki–Hiyama–Kishi reaction. The THF ring segment was stereoselectively constructed by a stereodivergent synthesis starting from a common intermediate (4‐cyclohexene‐1,2‐diol) based on a desymmetrization strategy. The γ ‐lactone segment was synthesized by coupling a triflate and a chiral α ‐sulfenyl γ ‐lactone. By virtue of these synthetic results, we suggest that the absolute configuration of natural mosin B is 1 a . Antiproliferative effects of 1 a and 1 b were also investigated.
