Abstract
A new preparation of 2R,4S)-(-)-4-acetyl-1,2-epoxy-1-methylcyclohexane , a unique synthon for the synthesis of the sex pheromone of the south ern green stinkbug, Nezara viridula (L.), is described. The steroselec tive formation of the epoxide ring has been accomplished by intramolec ular substitution of a selenone group.
