Biogenetic-type Synthesis of Sesquichamaenol

A hypothetical biosynthetic pathway for the conversion of farnesylpyrophosphate into seaquichamaenol 1, a modified sesquiterpenoid isolated from Chaemaecyparis formosensis Matsum is proposed. The synthesis of 1 which lends experimental support to the prop

New Syntheses of 4-Isopropyl-4-m-tolyl-γ-butyrolactone and 2-Methyl-3-p-tolylcyclopent-2-enone

New routes for the synthesis of 4-isopropyl-4-m-tolyl-γ-butyrolactone (7) and 2-methyl-3-p-tolylcyclopent-2-enone (13) are reported.The compounds (7) and (13) are key intermediates in the synthesis of several aromatic sesquiterpenoids.
