dc.description.abstractStereoselective total syntheses of (±)-longicyclene (1), ([plus-minus])-longicamphor (2A), and ([plus-minus])-longiborneol (2B) from tetrahydroeucarvone (21) via intermediate aldehyde 23 are discussed. The synthetic approach contains a reductive-cyclization reaction utilizing di isobutyl aluminum hydride to convert an enol-lactone to a bicyclic ketol. A new sequence of reactions is used to convert a cyclopropyl ketone intermediate to ([plus-minus])-longicyclene (1) without fragmentation. An attempt to apply a modification of the synthetic scheme used in the ([plus-minus])-longicyclene synthesis to the synthesis of (+)-cyclosativine (.5) is also presented.
