Nemoto, Hideo,Yamada, Toshie,Ishibashi, Hiroki,Fukumoto, Keiichiro
, p. 3149 - 3151 (1991)
Novel access to the chiral, α,α-disubstituted ketone 2-hydroxymethyl-2-methylcyclobutanone was developed, leading to an enantioselective total synthesis of (-)-frontalin, an aggregating pheromone of bark beetles.
