Abstract
Results of quantum chemical investigations shed new light on the mechanisms of formation of the stemarene, stemodene, betaerdene, aphidicolene, and scopadulanol diterpenes from syn-copalyl diphosphate ( syn-CPP). These terpenes are shown to be connected by a complex network of reaction pathways involving concerted but asynchronous dyotropic rearrangements and triple shift rearrangements. The interconnection of these pathways leads to multiple routes for formation of each diterpene, which could lead to different origins for some carbon atoms in a given diterpenes under different conditions.
