Synthesis and Odor Characteristics of New Gem-Dimethylcyclohexane Derivatives

Searching for cyclic analogs of the insect juvenile hormones, we synthesized a series of new compounds containing the cyclogeraniolene system. This system can be considered as a cyclic form of acyclic terpenes, such as dihydrocitronellol, dihydrogeraniol, and menthocitronellol. The isoprenoid chain in these compounds is rolled to form the cyclohexane ring by connection of the carbon atoms C-7 and C-10. As compared with the classical cyclic systems of the cyclogeraniol type, the compounds obtained by us contain the gem-dimethyl groups in the 3-position in relation to a chain with the functional group.
