✦ Synopsis
The naturally occurring sesquiterpenes 8-vetivone and a -vetivone have long been regarded as isomeric hydroaaulenones &and 2)1*2 which differ only in the stereochemistry of their respective C-6 methyl substituents. Whereas detailed studies of 6-vetivone have been reported, 43 a-vetivone has received little attention and, in fact, has never been chemically
