Abstract

The regiospecific functionalization at C-5 and difunctionalization at C-5/C-8 and C-5/C-10 of the monoterpene 1, 3, 3-trimethyl-2-oxabicyclo [2.2. 2] octane (1) is described. Chromyl acetate oxidation of 1 afforded 1, 3, 3-tri-methyl-2-oxabicyclo [2.2. 2] octan-5-one (6) in 60% yield along with 28% of unreacted 1 and minor amounts of exo-1, 3, 3-trimethyl-2-oxabicyclo [2.2. 2loctan-5-01 acetate (9), 1, 3, 3-trimethyl-2-oxabicyclo [2.2. 2] octane-5, 8-dione (13), ...
