Abstract
Abstractrac‐Osyrol® (3,7‐dimethyl‐7‐methoxyoctane‐2‐ol), a commercially important sandalwood odorant has been prepared from dihydromyrcene in three steps. The key steps in the synthesis are the epoxidation of terminal double bond using urea hydrogen peroxide (UHP) and regioselective reduction of epoxide using Vitride®. The same strategy has been applied to the synthesis of its ethoxy homologue. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
