Terpenes and Terpene Derivatives, XXI. - Synthesis of rac-4,5-Dihydro-β-curcumene-4,5-diolHydrolysis of the β-curcumene monoepoxide 1 afforded the title compound 2. - A second way started from the epoxy ketone 6. Hydrolysis (→ 7), formation of the THP ethers (→ 8, → 9), and reaction with homoprenyllithium leads to the allylic alcohol 3. After further protection (→ 4), Birch reduction, and subsequent hydrolysis a 1:4 mixture of the diols 2 and (E/Z)-11 was isolated.
