A stereoselective total synthesis of a naturally occurring cytotoxic styryl lactone, crassalactone A ( 1 ), has been accomplished. The synthesis involves (−)‐diisopropyl D ‐tartrate as the starting material, and the stereoselective additions of Grignard reagent and MeNO 2 to two chiral aldehyde intermediates as the key steps.
