THE VOLATILES OF CALAMINTHA NEPETA SUBSP. GLANDULOSA
De Pooter, Herman L.,De Buyck, Laurent F.,Schamp, Niceas M.
, p. 691 - 694 (1986)
The volatiles of C. nepeta subsp. glandulosa were studied by analysis of the essential oil and of the headspace (after concentration on Tenax GS).Amongst the 27 compounds identified in the essential oil, up to 92percent consisted of piperitone oxide and p

THE ABSOLUTE CONFIGURATION OF THE DICIPIENE DITERPENES
Croft, K. D.,Ghisalberti, E. L.,Jefferies, P. R.,Stuart, A. D.
, p. 383 - 387 (2007/10/02)
The absolute configuration of the dicipiene diterpenes has been determined by degradation to 4R-4-(2-methoxy-4-methylphenyl)-pentanoic acid.Photolysis of 1,18-diacetoxy-13-oxodecipi-14-ene proceeds through a novel photochemical reaction, formally a cycloreversion, to generate a key intermediate for the degradation.
