Studies in terpenoids. IV. Synthetic studies in juvabiones and analogues. Conversion of ar- (+)-turmerone to ar- (+)-juvabione

Abstract
Synthetic work leading to the preparation of todomatuic acids, juvabiones, and ar-(+)-juvabione and the successful conversion of ar-([plus or minus])-turmerone to ar-(+)-juvabione is presented. The synthetic juvabiones exhibit juvenile hormone activity.
