Abstract

Employing commercially available 1,5-cyclooctadiene 5 as the starting material, the first total synthesis of the tricyclic sesquiterpene hydrocarbon kelsoene 3 has been accomplished, which also reaffirms its assigned structure. The basic strategy delineated here for the construction of the tricyclo [6.2.0.02,6]decane framework is eminently suitable for the synthesis of other members of this class.
