Abstract
The photooxidation of cembrene by singlet oxygen is a stereoselective reaction and it is stereochemically similar to the epoxidation of cembrene by peracids. From the mixture of the photooxidation products of cembrene after its treatment with sodium tetrahydroborate four allyl alcohols have been isolated and the structures of two of them, previously undescribed, have been established on the basis of their spectral characteristics. The main component of these alcohols is cembra-2E, 4Z, 7E, 10E-tetraen-12S-ol.
