A short and highly stereoselective synthesis of squalamine ( 1 ) was accomplished in 9 steps from easily available methyl chenodeoxycholanate ( 2 ). The advanced intermediate 7α,24 R ‐dihydroxy‐cholestan‐3‐one ( 9 ) was synthesized by using improved dehydrogenation of 4 followed by conjugate reduction and efficient asymmetric isopropylation of aldehyde 7 as key reactions.
