✦ Synopsis


Stereoselective synthesis of cubitene (11, a novel diterp-ene isolated from defense secretion of termites, has been accomplished using an intramolecular reaction of a-sulfenyl carbanion vi th epoxide. Hydride reduction of the ketone 11 obtalned by Claisen rearrangement occurred in unexpectedly high stereoselectivlty yielding the chlorohydrln 12 with the desired stereochemistry.

Thermal rearrangement and acid-catalyzed cyclization of all possible geometrical isomers of hedycaryol were investigated. From the stereochemistry of the products, the reacting conformations were deduced. While three (E,E-, E,Z- AND Z,E-) isomers reacted through the crossed conformations, Z,Z-isomer
