The first example of a carbon-carbon bond formation at C-9 in the abietane framework via a highly practical γ-alkylalion of the enone 6 is reported. Attempted intra-molecular aldol reaction of the derived enone aldehyde 13 gave exclusively the undesired product 14. However, the 12-methyl enone aldehyde 17 gave a trace of the desired aldol 19, bond formation at C-7 still being the major pathway.
