✦ Synopsis
Artemisia ketone (VI) (l), isoartemisia ketone (VII) (l), am3 the acetate of artemisia alcohol (V) (2) are long-known representatives of the small group of monoterpenes whose carbon skeletons can not be divided into two isoprene units joined head to tail. The recent findinS (3) of the hydmcsrbon III from Santolina chsmaecyparissus &., a plant which contains artemisia ketone (VI), appears to clarify part of the biogenetic route to V, VI, and VII, which is likely to be as shown below.
