N2 - Tricycle 6, containing the CD ring of taxol, is constructed from (S)-(+)-carvone in 21 steps involving a Diels-Alder reaction with isoprene, a Baeyer-Villiger oxidation, an Oppenaurer oxidation and Meerwein-Ponndorf-Verley reduction, a stereospecific Grignard addition, and an intramolecular S N2 reaction as the key steps.
