✦ Synopsis
An enantiospeci!ic route to jasmonoid natural products, (+) -methyl epijasmonate and (-) -methyl cucmbate from L-glutamic acid is reported. The key step is a 5-(3,4) ene cyclization of a fmxtionahzed 14diene as chiron. which sets up three chin11 centres with a high degree of diastereoselectivity.
