A stereoselective synthesis of 3-phenoxybenzyl (${pm}$)-cis and trans-3-(2,2-dichlorovinyl)-2,2-dimethyl-1-cyclopropanecarboxylic acid starting from readily available 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol($underline{2}$) is described. Allylic rearrangement of 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol, in the presence of acetic acid and acetic anhydride gave 3-methyl-2-butenyl acetate($underline{3}$). The [3,3] sigmatropic rearrangement of the allyl acetate($underline{3}$), as the silylketene acetal, produced the ${gamma},;{delta}$-unsaturated acid($underline{4}$). Treatment of 3,3-dimethyl-4-pentenoic acid($underline{4}$) with SOCl2 followed by esterification with 3-phenoxybenzyl alcohol yielded 3, 3-dimethyl-4-pentenoic acid ester($underline{5}$). Addition of carbon tetrachloride to the olefin ester($underline{6}$) furnished 4,6,6,6-tetrachloro-3,3-dimethylhexanoic acid ester ($underline{7}$). Cyclization with potassium t-butoxide and elimination of hydrogen chloride afforded 3-phenoxybenzyl (${pm}$) cis- and trans-3-(2,2-dichlorovinyl)-2,2-dimethyl-1-cyclopropanecarboxylic acid.
