Rearrangement of rosifoliol epoxides: transformation of eudesmane to valencane sesquiterpene types
Abstract
A study has been made of the rearrangement of derivatives of the eudesmane sesquiterpene, (+)-rosifoliol (3), to valencane structures. This biogenetically significant methyl migration has been accomplished via Lewis acid-catalysed epoxide opening.
