Notes:
Two new C12-ketones, (+)-(1S, 10R)-1,10-dimethylbicyclo[4.4.0]dec-6-en-3-one (5) and (+)-(6S, 10S)-6,10-dimethylbicyclo[4.4.0]dec-1-en-3-one (6), have been isolated from Reunion vetiver oil (Vetiveria zizanioides (L.) Nash). Structure and absolute configuration of 5 were established by a four-step synthesis from (+)-isonootkatone ((+)-α-vetivone) (1). The structure of 6 followed from its spectroscopic properties and was confirmed by direct comparison with an authentic racemic sample. The absolute configuration of 6 was established by chemical correlation with (+)-α-eudesmol (13).
