The ochtodane skeleton is formed stereoselectively from myrcene via acid-catalyzed cyclization of the benzenesulfenyl chloride adduct and the epoxide in a biogenetic type fashion.Its application to the syntheses of two ochtodane-type monoterpenes, an aldehyde component of the boll weevil pheromone and a diol found in the red alga Ochtodes crockeri, is reported.
