Starting with isobutyric acid (2) and using a microbiological oxidation with Pseudomonas putida (S)-.beta.-hydroxy-iso-butyric acid (3) was prepared. From this pseudosymmetrical intermediate the 2 enantiomeric bromo derivatives 8 (R) and 20 (S) were synthesized by altering the sequence of the reactions. A Grignard reaction starting from the 2 bromo compounds 8 and 20 and from cyclododecanone 1 produced after hydrogenolysis the 2 enantiomeric dialcohols 9 and 21 (1 + 8 .fwdarw. 9, 1 + 20 .fwdarw. 21) cf. The subsequent transformations led to the 2 enantiomeric olefin derivatives 12 and 24. Oxidation of 12 with peracid produced a mixture of the 2 epoxy-sulfones 13 and 14. The olefin-derivative 24 was oxidized to the corresponding mixture of 25 and 26. A 1 pot cyclofragmentation produced a mixture of (E)- and (Z)-3-methylcyclopentadec-4-en-1-one (13 + 14 .fwdarw. 15 + 16, 25 + 26 .fwdarw. 27 + 28). The final hydrogenation led to natural (R)- and unnatural (S)-muscone (3-methylcyclopentadecanone). The archiral starting material was transformed to the desired optically active target products without loss of material with undesired absolute configuration. The notion of chiral economic synthesis was used to characterize synthetic sequences with the above-mentioned features.
