A method for producing an optically active 2,3-dihydrofarnesal represented by formula (1):
the method comprising:
subjecting ²-farnesene represented by formula (2) to amination in the presence of a lithium salt of an amine:
to obtain (2E)-farnesyl allylamine represented by general formula (3): subsequently subjecting to asymmetric isomerization to obtain an optically active farnesyl enamine represented by general formula (4):
and
subjecting the optically active farnesyl enamine to solvolysis, wherein R 1 , R 2 , and * are as defined in claims of the present application. |
