Herein, the first total synthesis and stereochemical assignment of (+)-broussonetine H are reported. The ambiguous stereocenters within different fragments were independently installed through asymmetric methods, namely a diastereo- and enantioselective, iridium-catalyzed spiroketalization and Brown allylation. Finally, convergent merging of the fragments enabled the synthesis of all potential diastereomers, allowing stereochemical assignment of (+)-broussonetine H.
