The selective obtention of epoxy-pyronene from δ-pyronene has been realized using metachloroperbenzoic acid. The isomerization of this epoxidic compound with Lewis and protonic acids and on active alumina has been studied leading to cyclocitrals. Ionones are obtained from epoxy-pyronene by homologation with various C3 units, in the presence of paratoluenesulfonic acid in order to obtain β-cyclocitral in situ. New terpenic compounds with the cyclogeranyl skeleton were obtained from epoxy-pyronene by reduction followed by homologation.
