In this study, a concise and stereoselective approach for the divergent total synthesis of (−)‐indoxamycins A–F is described. The key steps of the strategy include an Ireland–Claisen rearrangement, an enantioselective 1,6‐enyne reductive cyclization, and a tandem 1,2‐addition/oxa‐Michael/methylenation reaction. The relative and absolute configuration of these natural products has been unambiguously elucidated, and their cytotoxic activities against HT‐29 and A‐549 tumor cell lines are also reported.
