Abstract

The hydration of the cis- and trans-epoxides of 3-methyl-3-norcarene under acid catalysis conditions is characterized by a retention of the bicyclo[4.1.0]heptane structure and cleavage of the tertiary C-O bond of the epoxide rings; a regiospecificity of the opening is not observed under alkaline conditions.
