Procedure
A crude 80:20 mixture of 1-(rel-(1S,2S,6S)-/1-(rel-(1R,2S,6S)-2-ethyl-6-methylcyclohex-3-enyl)ethan-1-one (2.6 g) was prepared as described in Example 2 by EtONa catalyzed epimerization of 1-(rel-(1R,2S,6S)-2-ethyl-6-methylcyclohex-3-enyl)ethan-1-one (3.15 g, 18.9 mmol, Example 3) in ethanol (30 ml) at reflux (25 h). Aldolisation (LDA, AcH, THF) and water-elimination (PTSA.H2O, cyclohexane, reflux, 45 min.) gave a 83:17 mixture of 1-(rel-(1S,2S,6S)-/1-(rel-(1R,2S,6S)-2-ethyl-6-methylcyclohex-3-enyl)ethan-1-one (1.27 g, 2 steps: 42%).
