The syntheses of five naturally occurring antifeedants of the ochtodane ring system (1-ethyl-3,3-dimethylcyclohexane), previously isolated from the marine red alga Ochtodes crockeri, are reported.A key synthetic step involves the hydrolytic debromination of 6-bromo-1,4-ochtodien-3-ol.

The ochtodane skeleton is formed stereoselectively from myrcene via acid-catalyzed cyclization of the benzenesulfenyl chloride adduct and the epoxide in a biogenetic type fashion.Its application to the syntheses of two ochtodane-type monoterpenes, an aldehyde component of the boll weevil pheromone and a diol found in the red alga Ochtodes crockeri, is reported.
