Controlling factors determining the selective HSCN addition to double bonds and their application to the synthesis of 7-isothiocyano-7,8-a-dihydro-bisabolene

The reactivity of terminal and trisubstituted double bonds of monoterpenes with HSCN has been examined by GC giving evidence that kinetics is responsible for the chemoselective addition to terminal double bonds in terpenes. The results show that the addition to the terminal double bond is about 17 t...
