A chiral precursor of sarcophytol‐Q, (11S)‐3,7,11,15‐tetramethyl‐11‐hydroxy‐14‐oxo‐3E,7E,12E‐hexadecatrienal, was synthesized in a convergent and stereoselective manner starting from geraniol and 4‐hydroxy‐2‐butanone in nine steps. The key steps were asymmetric Sharpless epoxidation, base‐induced dehydrohalogenation rearrangement of chiral epoxy chloride 5 and the phase transfer catalytic coupling reaction of allylic phenyl sulfone 4 with chiral allylic chloride 3 .
