Two effective tricyclic platforms are reported for the installation of the two constituent sugars, L‐vancosamine and D‐angolosamine, in a regio‐ and stereoselective manner for the synthesis of the pluramycin class of bis‐C‐glycoside antitumor antibiotics. Two complementary protocols are now available that differ in the order in which the two sugar moieties are installed. Sc(OTf)3 was effective as the
