Abstract
syn-Epoxides of alpha-campholenic and fencholenic derivatives were synthesi zed by special epoxidation with peracetic acid besides the anti-isomers. Th is method is used to synthesize the syn-epoxide of Brahmanol(R) which gives a more intensive sandalwood odour compared to the anti-isomer. (C) 1999 El sevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
