Procedure
In the third step of the process 5-(1,3-dithiolan-2-yl)resorcinol (V) is reacted with p-mentha-2,8-dien-1-ol having the formula ##STR10## in a suitable liquid reaction medium such as benzene or methylene chloride in the presence of an acid, such as p-toluenesulfonic acid, to induce the condensation. The procedures for this type of reaction are disclosed in Helv. Chim. Acta, 52, 1102 (1969). An elevated temperature, such as the reflux temperature, promotes the reaction and brings it to completion in less than one hour. The desired 3-(1,3-dithiolan-2-yl)-6a,7,10,10a-tetrahydro-6,6,9-trimethyl-6H-dibenzo[b,d]pyran-1-ol (VI) is then obtained from the reaction mixture, and purified, using routine operations.
