Abstract

A concise synthesis of valerena-4,7(11)-diene with potent sedative activity was achieved in three steps involving, reduction of carboxylic acid, bromination of the resulting alcohol, and reduction of the bromide from valerenic acid in a 63% total yield. This synthetic method makes it possible to provide further materials for biological testing to realize comprehensive SAR studies.
