(−)‐( S )‐2‐Hydroxy‐β‐ionone ( 33 ), (+)‐(2 S , 6 S )‐2‐hydroxy‐α‐ionone ( 34 ), and their acetates 35 and 36 have been synthesized from (+)‐( S )‐6‐methylbicyclo [4.3.0]‐non‐1‐ene‐3, 7‐dione ( 3 ). The key intermediate (+)‐(1 R , 3 S , 6 S )‐2, 2, 6‐trimethyl‐7‐oxobicyclo [4.3.0]non‐3‐yl acetate ( 7 ) was correlated with a degradation product of the pentacyclic triterpene ursolic acid ( 16 ). Compound 33 was also synthesized by an alternative route starting from (−)‐ trans ‐verbenol ( 42 ).
