A new strategy for the synthesis of muscone (1) using the OH-assisted Prins reaction for macrocyclic ring closure has been developed. The monoacetal 4 of (Z,E)-4,8-dodecadienedial (3), easily obtainable from (Z,E,E)-1,5,9-cyclododecatriene (2), is treated with methallylmagnesium chloride, and the resulting C16-precursor 5 is subjected to acid-catalyzed cyclization in dilute (≤1%) solutions. This results in formation of the bicyclic dihydropyran derivatives 6 which directly yield muscone (1) on heating with a noble metal catalyst saturated with hydrogen. The five-step pathway proceeds with readily available starting materials in conventional steps and excellent overall yield (∼40%). This new principle of macrocyclic ring formation has also been used successfully for the preparation of 3-methylcyclotridecanone (34) and should be generally applicable for other suitable ring systems.
