Summary

A study was made of the isomerization of 2,3-epoxypinane and 3,4-epoxycarane by means of lithium diethylamide. 2,3-Epoxypinane is isomerized into trans-2(10)-pinen-3-ol, whereas 3,4-epoxycarane forms a mixture of alcohols: 3(10)-caren-4-ol, p-mentha-1,5-dien-8-ol, and m-mentha-4,6-dien-2-ol.
