An eight-step synthesis of the cyclopentane keto-alcohol 2, which has previously been converted in one step into the carotenoid pigment capsorubin (1), is described. The key step in our synthesis is a stereospecific epoxide rearrangement with ring contraction, thus producing the cyclopentane ring from an epoxide of a cyclohexene.
