The iso ‐α‐irone (2,6) trans (2 1 ,2 2 ) cis ‐α‐irone) was obtained by fractional distillation of the crude irone prepared by cyclisation of pseudo‐irones by means of boron trifluoride. This ketone and its ethylenic stereoisomer, the neo ‐ iso ‐α‐irone (2,6) trans (2 1 , 2 2 ) trans ‐α‐irone were reduced to alcohols by means of lithium‐aluminium hydride without noticeable stereomutation.
