Abstract

The ene reaction of (±)-lavandulyl acetate with PhSOCl catalyzed by ZnCl2 proceeds highly selectively at the isopropylidene fragment of this molecule to give the corresponding allyl sulfoxide. The sulfoxide-sulfenate rearrangement of this product and its one-step conversion to a mixture of racemic E/Z-sesquilavandulols were studied.
