A convenient synthesis of trans-sabinene hydrate from (−)-3-thujol via a highly selective ene reaction of singlet oxygen

trans-Sabinene hydrate ( 1), was synthesized from (−)-3-thujol ( 2) in four steps. The key step was the selective formation of trans-2-hydroxy-3-thujene ( 6) by photooxygenation of a 3:1 mixture of 2- and 3-thujenes ( 4 and 5) obtained from (−)-3-thujol mesylate ( 3). Hydrogenation of 6 gave compoun...
