Highly site- and regioselective terminal functionalizations of acyclic monoterpenes 1 via benzenesulfenyl chloride addition followed by hydrolysis assisted by silica gel, dehydrochlorination under neutral or weakly basic condition, or dehydrochlorination by strongly basic treatment respectively providing β-hydroxy sulfides 3, terminal methallylic sulfides 4, or vinylsulfides 5 are developed.Conversion of 4 to terminal trans-allylic alcohols 10 via sulfoxides 9 by the Evans procedure is also described.

The ochtodane skeleton, the Carbon framework of 1,1-dimethyl-3-ethylcyclohexane (1) was constructed highly stereoselectively by the acid-catalyzed (SnCl//4 or CF//3CO//2H) cyclization of the terminally functionalized myrcene derivatives, the benzenesulfenyl chloride adduct (7), the terminal beta -hydroxy sulfide (8) derived from 7, and myrcene 6,7-epoxide (10). The stereoselectivity of the 3-exo-double bond in 1 formed concomitantly in the cyclization reaction was found to depend remarkably upon the reaction temperture and the 85-94% of E-stereoselectivity was attained at minus 78 degree C. By the method, the ochtodane derivatives with the sulfur- or oxygen-functional groups on the C(6)-position were obtained.
