The reduction of the stereoisomeric 4,5-epoxy derivatives of the caryophyllene series with lithium in liquid ammonia gives the products from C-C cyclization with participation of the 8,13-double bond in addition to the "normal" reduction products, i.e., the 4-hydroxy- and 5-hydroxycaryophyllene compounds.The chemical structure and configuration of both the "normal" reduction products and the cyclocaryophyllane compounds containing the tricyclo2,5>undecane skeleton were established by analysis of the 1H and 13C NMR spectra and the optical rotatory dispersion curves.
