Abstract

Treatment of cycloalkanone dimethyl acetals 36 with sorbyl alcohol (=(2__E__,4__E__)‐hexa‐2,4‐dien‐1‐ol; 1) in the presence of acids afforded the novel cycloalkenones 8, 9, 11, and 13 via a domino reaction (Claisen rearrangement with intramolecular ene reaction and retro‐ene reaction). Cyclopentenone 8 was readily transformed into 14 and 15, methyl homologues of racemic methyl jasmonate (16) and methyl dihydrojasmonate (=Hedione®; 17), respectively. The organoleptic properties of 14 and 15 are also discussed.
