The bicyclic enone 5-methylene-1,1,4a.beta.-trimethyl-1,4,4a,5,8,8a.alpha.-hexahydronaphthalene-2,6(3H,7H)-dione 2-(2,2-aimethyl)trimethylene ketal (5), which is a precursor for rings A and B of the pentacyclic triterpenes, was synthesized in 10 steps from the enedione (.+-.)-1,4a-dimethyl-4,4a,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalene-2,5(3H,6H)-dione in 16% overall yield. Unsaturated keto alcohol (.+-.)-1,4a.beta.-dimethyl-5.beta.-hydroxy-4,4a,5,6,7,8-hexahydronaphthalene-2(3H)-one was resolved into its enantiomers and absolute stereostructures assigned. The levorotatory enantiomer of 5 has the absolute configuration corresponding to that of the pentacyclic triterpenes.
