✦ Synopsis
A new asymmetric synthesis of natural JH III from methyl farnesoate allows introduction of tritium from sodium borotritide into the 12-methyl group. Selective allylic oxidation followed by Shaxpless epoxidation of the (E)-allylic alcohol gives an epoxy alcohol (>97% e.e.), which is oxidized to the aldehyde. Sodium borotritide (65 CUmmol) reduction of the aldehyde is followed by tosylation. iodide displacement, and cyanoborohydride displacement to give [3H]-(lOR)-JH 111, specific activity 14 Ci/mmol.

## Abstract Radiolabeled optically‐active JH III bisepoxide ([^3^H]‐(10__R__)‐JHB~3~) was synthesized from [12‐^3^H] (10__R__)‐JH III using dimethyldioxirane to give an inseparable mixture of diastereomers with the __trans__‐6,7‐epoxide __syn__ or __anti__ to the existing 10,11‐epoxide. [^3^H]‐(10_
