An Investigation of the Friedel-Crafts Condensation With Homoterpenyl Methyl Ketone.

In recent years many naturally occurring substances have acquired a great deal of attention, due primarily to their biological or synthetic values. -Pinene is the well known naturally occurring substance which is the main component in longleaf or slash pine tree oleoresin. a-Pinene and some of its derivatives have been used as starting materials in industrially applied synthetic organic schemes. Such applications span the gamut from the polymer field to the flavor industry. One such derivative, homoterpenyl methyl ketone, is a readily available keto-y-lactone.
