Abstract
(Chemical Equation Presented). A short and practical preparation of α-asarone was developed using the inexpensive methylisoeugenol as a starting material. The utilization of a sequence of tribromination, debromination, and copper-mediated aromatic substitution enabled the stereoselective formation of only the E-isomer of α-asarone in good yield.
