Abstract

<p>A novel strategy for synthesizing (E)-1-((3-ethyl-2,4,4-trimethylcyclohex-2-enylidene)methyl-4-substituted benzenes from 1-(2,6,6-trimethylcyclohex-1-enyl)ethanol has been developed; the allylic alcohol was treated with PPh(3).HBr in methanol followed by aldehydes in the presence of a base and furnished the 1,3-dienes in moderate to good yields (79-86%).</p>
