- New Syntheses of Edulans and Theaspiranes from α-Inone
-
New syntheses of edulans and theaspiranes are described.The key step involves the cyclization of 4-(2',6',6'-trimethyl-2'-hydroxy-3'-cyclohexen-1'-yl)-butan-2-ol (7) and 4-(2',6',6'-trimethyl-1',2'-dihydroxy-3'-cyclohexen-1'-yl)-butan-2-ol (8) derived from α-ionone.The diol (7) and triol (8) were cyclized with acetic acid into the corresponding tetrahydropyran derivatives ; the latter two compounds were dehydrated to edulan I and II (13a, 13b).On treatment with tosyl chloride in pyridine, however, triol (8) gave spiro-compounds (11a, 11b and 12); (11a and 11b) were easily converted to cis- and trans-theaspirone by oxidation and 5,6-erythro-6-hydroxy-dihydrotheaspiranes (15a and 15b) by reduction.

Spirane derivatives, most of them are new, useful as odor-modifying ingredients for manufacturing perfumes and perfumed products, and as flavor-modifying ingredients for the manufacture of artificial flavors of for flavoring foodstuffs, animal feeds, beverages, pharmaceutical preparations and tobacco products. Process for preparing said spirane derivatives.
