Abstract
Oxidation of (+)-ledene by m-chloroperbenzoic acid was carried out to produce two diastereoisomer exposides along with another sesquiterpene , an allylic alcohol and an epoxy alcohol, rearrangement products of e poxide in acidic medium. Reduction of epoxides yielded several epoxy r ing opening flavoring products, including an ether, an enol, and a dio l. The determination of the structure of all the compounds was achieve d by 2D-NMR experiments.
