General description
(R)-(−)-Carvone is a monoterpenoid. Its ozonolysis in the gaseous phase has been proposed. Aldehydes (formaldehyde) and biradicals were obtained as the major products. It participates in the diastereoselective synthesis of homochiral octalones.
Application
Chiral starting material.
(R)-(−)-Carvone may be employed as starting reagent for the synthesis of enantiopure (R)-(+)-3-methyl-6-isopropenyl-cyclohept-3-enone-1, a useful intermediate formed during the synthesis of terpenoids. It may be employed as starting reagent for the synthesis of differently protected (4S,6R,7R)-trihydroxy-1-octyne derivatives.
