Abstract

Abstract: The preparations of 8-, 9-and 10-homocamphene are described. and their interconversions in acetonitrile-pyruvic acid have been studied and compared with camphene racemization mechanisms. The kinetics of the various processes, which are interrupted before secondary rearrangements become a problem, indicate that each isomer is transformed into its products oia simultaneous (competitive) reactions. hen the present ...
