Abstract
A general highly efficient structure-selective and stereospecific meth od of superacidic cyclization of terpenoid alcohols and their acetates , acids, esters and also of homo- and bishomoterpenoid alcohols, acids and esters has been elaborated. The terminal terpenic epoxides do not cyclize, undergoing isomerization and opening of the oxirane cycle.
