A short efficient synthesis of ambraketal (four steps) and epiambraketal (five steps) from sclareol

Ambraketal 7 and epiambraketal 8 are synthesized efficiently from sclareol 1. The key intermediate 5 is obtained by a regioselective elimination of ketoacetate 4 resulting from the side chain oxidative degradation of 1 by ruthenium tetroxide generated in situ.

SYNTHESIS OF AMBRACETAL AND EPI-8-AMBRACETAL

A protection-deprotection sequence is used in order to control the formation of the exocyclic double bond of compound 10 which is further used for the synthesis of the title compounds.
