β-Cleavage of Bis(homoallylic) Potassium Alkoxides. Synthesis of γ-Damascone
Snowden, Roger L.,Linder, Simon M.
, p. 1587 - 1597 (1988)
Starting from the γ-lactone cis-1, two new syntheses of γ-damascone ((E)-4) are described.In both syntheses, the key step involves the β-cleavage of a bis(homoallylic)potassium alkoxide, viz. the transformation of 3a to 20 and (E/Z)-4, and the conversion
