-
Example 8, (2008/06/13)
Novel intermediate compounds which can be used in the preparation of phytone and Vitamin E and a process for the preparation thereof. A process for the preparation of phytone and Vitamin E from these compounds is also claimed.

Low temperature electrophilic cyclization of α-geraniol, α-nerol, and α-linalool initiated by BF3*etherate leads to the formation of dimethylvinylcyclohexenes and bicyclooctyl fluoride, which have monoterpene skeletons.The α-monoterpenol starting materials may be regarded as close models to labdadienols, and their transformation as mimicking the biosynthesis of diterpenes in the pimarane and gibbane series according to Wenkert.
Alkylation du linalol sur les carbones C8 (et C6)
Cuvigny, Therese,Julia, Marc,Rolando, Christian
, p. 9 - 28 (2007/10/02)
Metallation of linalool α to the distal double bond with strong bases is described.The corresponding carbanions have been alkylated or oxidized to give mixtures of products resulting from attack at both carbon 8 (major product) and carbon 6 (minor product).

Palladium(0)-catalyzed reaction of isoprene with water was enhanced by the presence of carbon dioxide and a base to give dimethyloctadienols.The same catalyst was found to dehydrate the dimethyloctadienols to afford the corresponding dimethyloctatrienes.The effect of acidity of water on the isoprene-water reaction was also studied.
