Synthesis and absolute configuration of drim-9(11)-en-8-ols from Aspergillus oryzae

An enantiomeric synthesis of the drimane sesquiterpenes 1 and 2has been achieved starting from the diterpene (+)-royleanone (3) via its derivative 5. This result establishes that the natural sesquiterpenes isolated from Aspergillus oryzae have a normal absolute stereochemistry, like steroids. This conclusion is opposite to other data recently published.
