Transition from (+)-Car-3-ene to fragrant chemicals

For half a century, (+)-car-3-ene was relegated to the backyard of the Naval Stores Industry. More than anything else, lack of precise knowledge of its intricate chemistry and its non-availability in technical purity were responsible for this tragic negligence. Recent years have witnessed a dramatic change in the status of (+ )-car-3-ene. The terpene has blossomed into a unique raw material for modification to interesting and valuable perfumery synthetics.
