Abstract

Degradation of the side-chain of larixol 1, isolated from the turpentine oil of Larix sp., led to ester 6, useful intermediate for the synthesis of polyhydroxylated labdane diterpenes. Microbial hydroxylation of larixol and derivatives led to 2α-hydroxylated compounds which could be used for the hemisynthesis of forskolin type compounds.
