Acid‐mediated cyclisation of trienone 8 , readily available from 2,3‐dimethylbutanal ( 1 ; five steps: 47% yield), using fluorosulfonic acid (6.8 mol‐equiv.) in 2‐nitropropane at −70°, afforded a 14:9:1 mixture (70% yield) of (±)‐ cis ‐α‐irone ( 9 ), (±)‐ trans ‐α‐irone ( 10 ), and (±)‐β‐irone ( 11 ). Other acidic conditions examined, using 95% aq. H 2 SO 4 solution, 85% aq. H 3 PO 4 solution, or SnCl 4 , gave inferior results.
