Six optically active (Z)-7-decen-4-olide derivatives (1a-1f) were synthesized in 99% enantiomeric excess using diastereomeric resolution. The odour properties of the racemic and optically active 1a-1f were evaluated in terms of their orthonasal aromas. All of the stereoisomers had different odour characteristics and thresholds.

  • * The synthetic sample exhibited a specific rotation that was opposite to that of the natural product, indicating that the natural product's absolute configuration may need to be reconsidered.
