Abstract
The stereocontrolled synthesis of 9-dimethyl-s-oxo-7-oxatricyclo[4.3.0 .0(3,9)]nonane 1 from (R)-(-)-carvone has been accomplished by applica tion of a 13-step sequence with 12% overall yield. The absolute stereo chemistry of the unsaturated acid 8a has been established by X-ray ana lysis of the chiral amide 8c. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. All right s reserved.
