Optically active 2,6-dimethylcyclohexanone-2-carboxylate was prepared by PLE-catalyzed dealkoxycarbonylation of σ-symmetrical β-ketodiesters, which possess quarternary carbons at α- and α′-positions. Moreover, (-)-podocarpic acid was prepared in a short s

A pentacarbonylcarbene chromium complex of the diterpenoid methyl O-methylpodocarpate has been prepared and its reactions with some alkynes have been studied with the aim of synthesising ring-C aromatic steroids.The use of diphenylacetylene resulted in cyclisation to give steroidal derivatives in moderate yield.
