Abstract The first total synthesis of resveratrone and iso ‐resveratrone based on an epoxide olefination approach is described. The pivotal reaction proceeds by insertion of the lithiated epoxide into a boronic ester and subsequent syn ‐elimination. Resveratrone has been described to have remarkable photophysical properties, including two‐photon absorption. Therefore, an azide derivative has been prepared to allow for use as a biological label.
