Abstract

The chemical structure of the novel monoterpene 1, named ‘linden ether’ and isolated from linden honey and the blossoms of lime tree (Tilia cordata), was studied by two-dimensional NMR spectroscopy, by high-resolution MS as well as by hydrogenation experiments and by GC on a chiral phase. Thus, linden ether was identified as a racemic mixture, i.e. (7aRS)-2, 4, 5, 7a-tetrahydro-3, 6-dimethylbenzofuran.
