The invention discloses a novel method for synthesizing (1R,2S)-methyl dihydrojasmonate by using an asymmetric Michael addition reaction. The method comprises the steps: firstly, subjecting cyclopentanone, which serves as a starting raw material, to an aldol reaction with n-valeraldehyde under alkaline conditions to produce 2-pentylidene cyclopentanone 2, and then, carrying out double-bond transposition under acidic conditions, so as to obtain 2-n-pentyl-2-cyclopentenone 3; then, carrying out a Michael addition reaction with dimethyl malonate in the presence of a chiral amino-acid lithium salt, and carrying out silicagel-column chromatographic separation twice, so as to obtain (1S,2S)-2-n-pentyl-3-dimethyl malonate cyclopentanone 4; and finally, carrying out a hydrolyzed decarboxylation reaction, thereby obtaining (1R,2S)-methyl dihydrojasmonate. According to the method, the synthesis route is simple and direct, the reaction conditions are mild, and the target compound can be prepared by only four-step reactions.

Methyl dihydrojasmonate 1 and magnolione 3 are of both academic and industrial interest. In this paper, we describe a flexible, high-yielding route to diastereomerically pure (+)-cis-(1R,2S)-methyl dihydrojasmonate 1 and the first synthesis of (+)-cis-(1R

The synthesis of (±)-methyl epijasmonate (1) was carried out by Michael addition of lithium diallylcuprate to enone 3 and diastereoselective enolate protonation with the chelating proton source 2-(methyliminomethyl)phenol (4; 85% ds), followed by ozonolysis, oxidation, esterification, and Lindlar hydrogenation. During the ozonisation, epimerization to the thermodynamically more stable trans-isomer takes place to some extent, so that 1 was isolated with a cis:trans ratio of 72:28. The analogous transformation of enone 7 with lithium diallylcuprate and 2-(methyliminomethyl)phenol (4) furnished ketone 8 with 94% ds; this was then transformed into (±)-methyl dihydroepijasmonate (2) with a cis:trans ratio of 91:9. The olfactory properties of this product are superior to those available from commercial sources.
