A total synthesis of aliskiren ( 20 ) was accomplished. A key in our synthesis was to use the symmetric trans‐cisoid‐trans‐ bis‐lactone 1 as a precursor. It was expediently prepared by three different routes ( Scheme 2 ). Appending the end groups and functional group transformations completed the synthesis ( Scheme 3 ).
