Procedure

System B: (E)-2-methyl-4-((1S,3S,5R)-1,2,2-trimethylbicyclo-[3.1.0]hexan-3-yl)but-2-en-1-ol (5 g, 24 mmol) (F. Schröder, WO 2006066436, priority 20.12.2005 to Givaudan) is added undercooling and stirring to methyl magnesium chloride 3M in tetrahydrofuran (8 ml, 24 mmol) under nitrogen. Dibromomethane and tert-butyl magnesium chloride are added at a temperature of 10°-20° C. The dibromomethane and tert-butyl magnesium chloride are each added in 3 portions, one portion of dibromomethane (4.2 g, 24 mmol) followed by a portion of tert-butyl-magnesium chloride (12 ml, 24 mmol). After the addition of each pair of portions (72 mmol) the mixture is stirred for an appropriate time at room temperature. When complete or nearly complete conversion is reached, as checked by GC, the mixture is quenched by addition of conc. NH4Cl. Tert-Butyl methyl ether extraction, washing of the organic phase with H2O until pH 7, drying over MgSO4 and concentration gives 16.6 g of an an oily residue, which is bulb-to bulb-distilled at 120° C./0.07 Ton giving 4.7 g (89%) of Javanol (dr=1:1), whose analytical data are consistent with the ones described for this compound in the literature (J. A. Bajgrowicz, G. Frater, EP 801049, priority 9.4.1997 to Givaudan-Roure).
