The reaction mass was aged for 2 hours and allowed to warm to 0°C. Methallyl chloride 248g (2.7 mole) was added over 2 hours. The reaction was warmed to room temperature, then heated to 60°C for 20 hours. The mixture was cooled and quenched with 10% hydrochloric acid (1 liter). The crude mass was washed with brine. The organic layer was distilled to recover THF and 310g of l,l,2,3,3-pentamethyl-5-(2-methylprop-2-enyl)-2,3,5,6,7-pentahydroinden-4-one (Bp 142-143°C at 2 mm Hg). The nmr spectrum of l,l,2,3,3-pentamethyl-5-(2-methylprop-2-enyl)-2,3,5,6,7-pentahydroinden-4-one is as follows: 0.86-1.23 ppm (ms,15H), 1.36-1.66 ppm (m, 2H), 1.72 ppm (bs, 3H), 1.75-2.39 ppm (m, 4H), 2.59-2.71 pprn (m,lH), 4.70 ppm (d, 2H). Example 12 Preparation of 3-(2-bromoethvn-7J.8.9.9-pentamethvIbicvcIof4.3.01nonan-2-one A solution of 7,7,8,9,9-pentamethylbicyclo[4.3.0]nonan-2-one 200g (0.97 mole) and THF (lOOmL) is fed into lithium diisopropylamide 1L (1.0 M in THF) and HMPA (lOg 5 mole percent) at -30°C. The reaction mass is aged for 2 hours and allowed to warm to 0°C. 1,2- Dibromoethane 200g (1.06 mole) is added over 2 hours. The reaction is warmed to room temperature and aged for 24hrs. The mixture is quenched with 10% hydrochloric acid (200mL). The crude mass is washed with brine. Distillation would provide 3-(2-bromoethyl)-7,7,8,9,9-pentamethylbicyclo[4.3.0]nonan-2-one as a mixture of isomers. Example 13 Preparation of 3-f2-bromoethvlV7.7.8.9.9-pentamethvlbicyclof4.3.01nonan-2-ol A solution of 3-(2-bromoethyl)-7,7,8,9,9-pentamethylbicyclo[4.3.0]nonan-2-one, 200g (0.63 mole) in toluene (60 g) is fed into RED-AL® (65% in toluene) 218g (0.70 mole) at 60°C in Ihr. The reaction mass is quenched with aqueous caustic soda (200 g of 50% NaOH) at 60°C. The mass is diluted with water (500 ml) and cooled to room temperature. The aqueous layer is separated and discarded. Distillation would provide 3-(2-bromoethyl)-7,7,8,9,9-pentamethylbicyclo[4.3.0]nonan-2-ol as a mixture of isomers.
