Compounds with different sets of three of the four functional groups of (1R,2R,6S)-3-methyl-6-(prop-1-en-2-yl)cyclohex-3-ene-1,2-diol 1 possessing high antiparkinsonian activity were synthesized. The synthesized compounds were tested for the antiparkinsonian activity in vivo on a mouse model with MPTP neurotoxin. A pronounced antiparkinsonian effect of 1 can only be achieved if it contains all the four functional groups (two hydroxy groups and two double bonds). The 2-hydroxy group or the 3,4-double bond is not required for stimulating the exploratory activity of the animals.

A selective synthesis of both trans- and cis-p-mentha-1,8-dien-5-ol from trans-verbenol is described.The sequence leading to trans-p-mentha-1,8-dien-5-ol consists of cleavage of the cyclobutane ring of pinene with N-bromosuccinimide in acetone to give the acetonide of 6-bromo-trans-p-menthene-5,8-diol, hydrodebromination with lithium aluminum hydride, and acidic treatment of the resultant acetonide of trans-p-menthene-5,8-diol. cis-p-Mentha-1,8-dien-5-ol is obtained by Swern oxidation of the trans-isomer and reduction of the resultant ketone with lithium tri-sec-butylborohydride.Acidic treatment of the acetonide of cis-p-menthene-5,8-diol (obtained from cis-verbenol) gives exclusively p-mentha-1(7),2-dien-8-ol.
