Abstract
The synthesis of the title compound is described. Starting with an alp ha-alkylation of (R)-(-)-carvone in position 6 followed by a Wittig re action, a Tebbe transformation, and a DIBAH ester reduction, this new santalol analogue was obtained which shows a weak woody odour with a d ry note of cedrol.
