The major reaction of Δ1-p-menthene with thallium(III) nitrate in methanol is found to be the solvolysis of C-Tl bond while the commonly observed oxidative rearrangement is the minor one.A new type of cyclization of limonene (2) to bicyclooctane system has been achieved for the first time in its reaction with TTN in methanol.A likely pathway of the cyclization reaction is proposed.
