Starting from the photocycloaddition of methyl 2,4-dioxopentanoate with 4-isopropenyltoluene, isolaurene was synthesized, and its further conversion to 5-cuparenone constituted the formal synthesis of cuparene. For the first time, the proto-(2 plus 2) pi

Novel syntheses of isolaurene (1), an isomer of laurene (2) found in algae, and its related compounds were performed from cyclotene (3).Benzylated cyclotene (4) was allowed to react with p-tolyl-magnesium bromide to give 5-methyl-2-p-tolyl-2-cyclopentenon
