Stereocontrolled syntheses of (-)-cubebol and (-)-10-epicubebol involving intramolecular cyclopropanation of alpha-lithiated epoxides.

Formylation of (-)-menthone (11) with LDA and HCO(2)CH(2)CF(3) avoids loss of configurational integrity at the isopropyl group, giving hydroxymethylenementhone 12. Lithium 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidide-induced intramolecular cyclopropanation of derived unsaturated terminal epoxide 17 (and chlorohydr...
