Procedure

A solution of (E,E)-4,8,12-trimethyl-3,7,11-tridecatrienol (400 mg, 1.59 mmol) in acetonitrile (5 ml) was added to a slurry of N-methymorpholine N-oxide (280 mg, 2.38 mmol) and powdered 4A molecular sieves in acetonitrile (10 ml) and the mixture stirred at r.t. for 10 min. Tetrapropylammonium perruthenate (28 mg, 0.00795 mmol) was added in one portion and the resulting dark green slurry stirred at r.t for 1 hr. The reaction mixture was filtered through a plug of silica gel eluting with ethylacetate and the filtrate evaporated in vacuo. The resulting oil was chromatographed over silica gel eluting with diethylether: hexanes (1:10, v:v) to afford the title compound (200 mg, 50%) as a clear colorless oil.
