Concise Synthesis of an Antifeedant Sesquiterpene against Locusta migratoria

抄録

A concise synthesis of (1S^*,3R^*,6R^*)-1-hydroxy-7(14),10-bisaboladien-4-one, an antifeedant against the locust Locusta migratoria isolated from the Japanese cedar Cryptomeria japonica, was achieved by starting from 4-hydroxy-2-cyclohexenone.
