The first diastereoselective synthesis of (1S,6R)-1-hydroxy-2,7(14),10-bisabolatrien-4-one, an antifeedant against Acusta despesta and Locusta migratoria, was produced from Cryptomeria japonica (commonly known as Japanese cedar), starting from (R)-(−)-carvone via (R)-(−)-cryptomerione. The enantiomer was transformed into (1S,3R,6R)-1-hydroxy-7(14),10-bisaboladien-4-one, a novel antifeedant against L. migratoria from the same tree, by 1,4-selective reduction of the enone moiety.
