Abstract
2,2-Dimethyl cyclopentanones are readily prepared by acid catalyzed ring expansion of isopropenylcyclobutanols; the method allows ready access to the family of sesquiterpenes cuparanes and herbertanes, as demonstrated by the synthesis of (+/-)-alpha-cuparenone and the direct precursor of (+/-)-herbertene.
