Abstract

A practical method for the synthesis of optically active labdane-type diterpenes from (+)-manool 8, is described. We prepared the natural labdane-type diterpene 5 via key intermediate peroxide 9 and coronarin C 1, compound 8 and zerumin B 6 via a furan photosensitised oxygenation reactions.
