Two ot the title compounds, recently identified as components of exudates produced by lace bug nymphs of the genus Corythucha, have been synthesized. 2-Acyl-3-hydroxy-2-cyclohexene-1-ones were converted to 3-alkyl-6,7-dihydro-1,2-benzisoxazol-4(5H)-ones which were hydroxylated at position 5, then reductively disassembled.Sodium borohydride and nickel chloride in DMF/THF containing 1-octene selectively reduced the isoxazole N-O bond without hydrogenating a side chain double bond.
