Abstract

The reactivity of verbenone epoxide (5), a terpenoid from the pinane series, towards different aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes in the presence of natural montmorillonite (askanite–bentonite) clay has been studied. A series of mechanistically different transformations afforded a number of new, optically active, polyfunctional compounds (7, 8, 1014, 16). These products are potentially interesting synthons in asymmetric synthesis.
