addition of methanol to the presumed intermediate bicyclo[2.1.0]pentane (11), producing the cis,syn,cis-tricyclo[6.3.0.0]undecane (12) in >90% yield. The general method is applied in a synthesis of the hirsutane carbon skeleton [viz. (19)→(20)] found in hirsutic acid (7) and related natural sesquiterpenes.
