Synthetic Studies Towards Compounds Related to Sterpurene and Protoilludene.-As part of synthetic strategies towards the title sesquiterpenes (I) and (II), resp., the intramolecular aldol condensation of the diastereomeric cyclopentanes (XII) and (XIII) is studied. Mixtures of the cis-and trans-bicyclononenones (XIV) and (XV) with (XVI) are obtained in ratios varying from 1:1 to 12:1 depending on different acidic or basic reaction conditions. The preparation of the trans compound (XV) in ≈70% yield constitutes formally a new synthesis of (I). -(BIRKENES, O. J.; HANSEN, T. V.; M'DACHI, S.; SKATTEBOEL, L.; STENSTROEM, Y.; Acta Chem.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
