7-Acetoxyroyleanone (1a) has been converted in five steps to the methoxy-p-quinone 9.Since the latter was the penultimate intermediate in Eugster's partial synthesis of 14-methoxytaxodione (2), the transformation reported represents a formal synthesis of the latter.Key words: 7-acetoxyroyleanone, 14-methoxytaxodione, synthesis.
