Lithiated sulphone z was reacted with trimethyl(oxiranyl)silane 2 to yield allylic alcohol 4; the latter was epoxidized by the Sharpless procedure and the corresponding hydroxy-epoxide @ was transformed into (+)-disparlure 2 via tosylate z.

Abstract
Reaction of lithiated sulfone 3 with trimethyl(oxiranyl)silane 4, followed by acid hydrolysis, afforded the (Z)βallylic alcohol 6 contaminated with its (E) isomer. Epoxidation of 6 by the Sharpless procedure yielded the hydroxy epoxide, which was isolated as its enantiomerically pure 3,5βdinitrobenzoyl derivative 7 and transformed into (+)βdisparlure 1 via alcohol 8 and tosylate 9.
