Compounds of the menthane series. Synthesis of unsaturated primary alcohols with the o- and p-menthane skeletons

Precursors to terpene alcohols of the o- and p-menthane series (o-cimen-7-ol and o- and p-cimen-9-ols) were synthesized, and their reduction with lithium in ethylenediamine was studied. The reduction of o- and p-cimen-9-ols in the presence of isopropyl alcohol selectively afforded the corresponding 1,4-dihydro derivatives. Under analogous conditions, o-cimen-7-ol was converted into a mixture of unsaturated hydrocarbons. The reduction with lithium in ethylenediamine in the absence of isopropyl alcohol in all cases gave mixtures of menthene alcohols.

STUDIES OF COMPOUNDS IN THE MENTHANE SERIES. XIX. SYNTHESIS AND PROPERTIES OF TRANS-o-4-MENTHEN-8-OL AND STEREOISOMERIC o-5-METHEN-8-OLS

Trans-o-4-Menthen-8-ol and cis- and trans-o-5-menthen-8-ols have been prepared via the Diels-Alder reactions of 1,3-butadiene with crotonaldehyde in the presence of boron trifluoride etherate, and piperylene with methyl acrylate, respectively.The dehydration reactions of these alcohols have been studied in the presence of acetic anhydride and potassium bisulfate; the latter reagent demonstrates a high reaction selectivity.
