Base-catalysed of terpenes
We have projected in the foregoing survey significant advances in the isomerisation of terpenes by base catalysis. Invoking this technique, it si seen how many of the delicate reactions are smoothly accomplished, adding new dimensions to terpene technology. How terpenes, which are notoriously sensitive to thermal and proton impact, have been engineered in the desired direction through base catalysis is an important chapter in the history of terpene chemistry.

Fragrances Through Hydrochlorination of Terpenes
Among the reactions that have enriched terpene chemlstry, perhaps the simplest and one of the outstanding is hydrochlorination. This reaction has been used for structural elucidation, for derivatization to identify and/or purify terpenes and for synthesizing perfumery chemicals. How the application of hydrochlorination on terpenes has unearthed the treasure caves of fragrances is a vibrant chapter worthy of portrayal.
