Abstract

Abstract Oxidation of terpinolene with tert-butyl chromate was carried out, and piperitenone, 8-hydroxy-p-cymene, p-cymene and α,p-dimethyl-styrene were obtained as reaction products. In this oxidation it was found that the active methylene group at C(3) position in terpinolene was oxidized to a carbonyl group, and that the aromatization of carbon ring in terpinolene molecule took place. This could not be recognized in the oxidation of terpene compounds already reported by this oxidant.
