Halogenated Terpenoids. XXVIII. The Conversion of Limonene Tetrabromide Into Carvone Derivatives With Retained C8 Stereochemistry

Abstract

Limonene tetrabromide has been converted into the corresponding carvone derivative with retention of the C8 stereochemistry, thus allowing the C8 stereochemistry of the limonene and carvone series to be chemically correlated.
