Abstract
The racemate of junicedranol, a sesquiterpene-alcohol with a novel carbon s keleton, was prepared through a unique anionic [1,3] rearrangement of an 8- methylenebicyclo[3.2.1]oct-6-en-2-ol giving a cyclopentadiene derivative an d the facial- and regioselective Diels-Alder reaction of the cyclopentadien e with a ketene equivalent leading to the junicedranol framework.
