Decomposition of ozonolysis peroxide products of (+)-α- and (+)-β-pinenes in methanol by Fe(III) salts

Chemistry of Natural Compounds Aims and scope

The reaction of ozonolysis peroxide products of (+)-α and (+)-β-pinenes with Fe(III) salts in MeOH was studied. It was found that decomposition of methoxyhydroperoxides obtained via ozonolysis of (+)-β-pinene using FeCl3⋅6H2O occurred at room temperature with formation of nopinone and its 3-chloro derivative; under reflux, nopinone and p-isopropylphenol. Replacing FeCl3⋅6H2O by Fe(NO3)3⋅9H2O produced the single product nopinone. Decomposition of peroxide compounds obtained via ozonolysis of (+)-α-pinene using FeCl3⋅6H2O gave a mixture of (1S,3S)-3-acetyl-2,2-dimethyl-1-(2,2-dimethoxyethyl)cyclobutane and [(1S,3S)-3-acetyl-2,2-dimethylcyclobutyl]acetate.
