A simple and highly efficient stereoselective total synthesis of (11 β )‐11‐methoxycurvularin ( 5 ), a polyketide natural product, was achieved. The synthesis commenced with a Cu‐mediated regioselective opening of (2 S )‐2‐methyloxirane ( 6 ) and comprised a Keck asymmetric allylation and intramolecular Friedel–Crafts acylation as key steps ( Scheme 2 ).
