Structure Elucidation of C10H14-Dehydroterpenes by Reaction Gas-Chromatography. - Identification of New Terpene Constituents in Essential Oils

Alumina-catalyzed dehydration of C10H16O-monoterpene alcohols and elimination of acetic acid from C10H15OCOCH3-monoterpene acetates were carried out in the injection port of a gas chromatograph.The C10H14-monoterpene hydrocarbons formed were analyzed by gas chromatography and mass spectrometry.By means of this reaction gas chromatographic technique, verbenene (7) and 1,5,8-p-menthatriene (13) were identified unequivocally, for the first time, as constituents of essential oils.

INVESTIGATION OF COMPOUNDS OF THE o-METHANE SERIES. XII. INVESTIGATION OF THE COMPOSITION OF THE PRODUCTS FROM PYROLYSIS OF VERBENENE

During the pyrolysis of verbenene the opening of the cyclobutane ring occurs at the C1-C7 and C5-C7 bond with the formation of terpene compounds of the o- and p-methane series.The latter were submitted to secondary reactions of isomerization and disproportionation of hydrogen, leading to the reduction of monocyclic and bicyclic terpene and aromatic hydrocarbons and unsaturated compounds of the isobutylcyclohexane series.
