Abstract
Synthetic studies towards the insect antifeedant jodrellin A 1a are re ported. This work delineates a synthetic strategy that affords a polyc yclic epoxy diacetate model compound 2 which contains most of the stru ctural features found in the natural product. This material was also s hown to possess mild insect antifeedant activity against Spodoptera li ttoralis.
