Abstract
The regiospecific reduction and Favorskii rearrangement of enantiopure tetrabromoepifenchone, which could be easily obtained by bromination of camphor, have been investigated. The selective formation of new functionalized chiral bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane and bicyclo[2.1.1]hexane derivatives in good yield has been demonstrated. Our approach provides a simple pathway for the large-scale synthesis of a wide range of novel functionalized bicyclic terpenoids starting from easily available camphor.
