Dehydration of abiet‐8‐ene‐7β, 13β‐diol (ibozol, 1 ) leads to abieta‐7,9(11)‐dien‐13β‐ol ( 2 ) which aromatizes slowly to the known abieta‐8,11,13‐triene ( 3 ). Photosensitized oxygenation of the heteroannular diene 2 yields a mixture from which three compounds were identified; abiet‐7‐ene‐9α, 11α, 13β‐triol ( 4 ), abieta‐8,11,13‐trien‐7‐one ( 5 ), and abieta‐8,11,13‐trien‐7α‐ol ( 6 ).
