## Abstract A seven‐step stereoselective synthesis of (±)‐sweroside aglucone __O__‐methyl ether (**16a**) was achieved in 27% overall yield from 1, 4‐cyclohexadiene (**4**) and methyl diformylacetate (**5**). Secologanin aglucone __O__‐methyl ether (**18a**) was then formed from **16a** in 90% over
