Catalpol is converted into the enantiomerically pure (1R,2R,2''Z)-(-)-methyl jasmonate (1) by a 16-step synthesis (yield about 7percent).The R-configuration at C-1 of 1 results from the synthesis.The complete stereochemistry of 1 is confirmed by the X-ray analysis of methyl dehydrojasmonate semicarbazone (semicarbazone of 12).
