Halogenated terpenoids. XXXII - Pentabromides from limonene two 1,2,8,9,9-pentabromo-p-menthanes

The problems of structure in diastereomers where one chiral centre is remote from another are further investigated in the 1,2,8,9,9-pentabromo-p-menthane series.

The reaction of 8-amino-p-menthene derivatives with electrophiles

Attempts to ring-close the nitrogen atom of 8-amino-p-menth-1-ene and of N-substituted 8-amino-p-menth-1-enes onto the C1 - C2 double-bond carbons has led to a range of bicyclo[2.2.2] and bicyclo[3.2.1] products, together with the novel bicyclo[4.3.1]-1,3-oxazepine 9.
