Cyclization of N,N-diethylgeranylamine N-oxide in one-pot operation: preparation of cyclic terpenoid-aroma chemicals

Acid promoted cyclization of the geranylamine N-oxide (E)-4 followed by base-catalyzed intramolecular aldol condensation afforded 1-acetyl-4,4-dimethyl-1-cyclohexene (7) in one-pot operation. Reduction of 7, which possess strong fruity odor, followed by lipase-catalyzed kinetic resolution furnished the acetate (R)-26 (>49.9% yield, >99% ee) and the recovered alcohol (S)-25 (>49.9% yield, >99% ee, herbal odor).
