By-products in the synthesis of ambroxide. Sibirtseva, V. E.; Kustova, S. D.; Tokareva, V. Ya.; Vlad, P. F.; Koltsa, M. N. (Vses. Nauchno-Issled. Inst. Sint. Nat. Dushistykh Veshchestv, Selo Varontsov, USSR). Maslo-Zhir. Prom-st., (5), 21-2 (Russian) 1984. CODEN: MZPYAE. ISSN: 0025-4649. DOCUMENT TYPE: Journal CA Section: 62 (Essential Oils and Cosmetics) Section cross-reference(s): 27 The carboxylic acids obtained during the prepn. of ambroxide (I) [6790-58-5] from sclareol (II) [515-03-7] were investigated for possible uses in perfumes. During II oxidn., a mixt. of 8,13-oxidolabdanic acid (III) [93527-86-7] and 15-nor-8,13-oxidolabdanic acid (IV) [4780-62-5] was obtained in a ratio of 1.3. Esterification of III and IV followed by redn. gave ambrol, a mixt. of V [56247-61-1] and VI [93527-87-8] (60-65%), VII [93414-30-3] and VIII [93414-31-4] (20-25%). The neutral fraction of I oxidn. consisted of 20% norambrenolide (IX) [564-20-5] and 25 other components. A mixt. of I, X [68365-88-8], XI [85999-82-2] and XII [68365-89-9] and XIII [1153-34-0], XIV [1153-35-1] and XV [55733-01-2] is useful for perfumes.

6b-Hydroxysclareol from Salvia moorcraftiana. Michavila, A.; De la Torre, Maria C.; Rodriguez, B.; Garcia-Alvarez, Maria C.; Hasan, Mashooda (Inst. Quim. Org., CSIC, Madrid 28006, Spain). An. Quim. 515-03-7 and 19103-54-9 which are cas registry numbers are also used here., Ser. C, 82(3), 257-9 (English) 1986. CODEN: AQSBD6. ISSN: 0211-1357. DOCUMENT TYPE: Journal CA Section: 11 (Plant Biochemistry) Section cross-reference(s): 30 A new diterpenoid, 6b-hydroxysclareol (I), has been isolated from the aerial parts of S. moorcraftiana. The structure of this compd. was established by spectroscopic means. The previously known compds. sclareol, b-sitosterol, and salvigenin were also found in the same source. .
