The magnesium 3,3‐dimethylcyclohex‐1‐enolate 1i , formed in the copper catalyzed addition of methylmagnesium iodide to 3‐methylcyclohex‐2‐enone, has been subjected to regiospecific electrophilic reactions such as acylation, alkylation, and aldol condensation in order to find a new access to the damascones, ionones and carotenoids. By way of illustration a new synthesis of γ‐damascone is described.
