Oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptenones undergo 2-carbon ring expansion reactions when subjected to anionic condensations and Michael acceptors. They also undergo condensation, fragmentation, and elimination reactions in their anionic couplings with aldehydes. As an outgrowth of this interesting chemistry, we have been able to access the carbon skeleton of oxygenated cembranoids by subjecting bis-activated ene-yne 39 to the enolate from oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptenone 1.

Khusimone (1), one of the main odor-donating compounds of vetiver oil, is subject of the following study on structure/odor relationship. The omittance of the methano bridge of the tricyclic khusimone should lead to the bicyclic partial structure (-)-2. Un
