Abstract
(E)‐9‐Isopropyl‐6‐methyl‐5,9‐decadien‐2‐one (1a), a terpenoid C14‐ketone with a novel skeleton, was isolated from costus root oil (Saussurea lappa CLARKE) and its structure established by a two‐step synthesis from thuja ketone (2). The possible role of the new compound as an intermediate in the biosynthesis of the irones is discussed.This publication has 11 references indexed in Scilit:
