Af. Barrero et al., JUNICEDRANOL, A SESQUITERPENE WITH A NOVEL CARBON SKELETON FROM JUNIPERUS-OXYCEDRUS SSP MACROCARPA, Tetrahedron letters, 36(35), 1995, pp. 6347-6350
Junicedranol 1, a sesquiterpene with a novel carbon skeleton, has been
isolated from the essential oil of the wood of Juniperus oxycedrus ss
p. macrocarpa. The structure was determined by the analysis of 2D NMR
spectra to be a 2,2,6,7-teaamethyl-tricycle[5.2.2.0(1.6)]undecane carb
on skeleton. Its relative stereochemistry is proposed on the basis of
NOESY. The absolute configuration was established by ''Mosher's method
''.
