These slides will introduce you readers about synthesis of Longifolene through its retrosynthestic analysis. It consist of synthetic and retrosynthetic module of Longifolene given by different scientists
2. Longifolene
A naturally occurring, oily liquid hydrocarbon found
primarily in the high-boiling fraction of certain pine resins.
The name is derived from that of a pine species from which
the compound was isolated, Pinus longifolia.
Compact tricyclic structure and lack of functional groups.
Attractive target for research groups highlighting new
synthetic methodologies.
Notable syntheses are by Corey, McMurray, Johnson,
Oppolzer, and Schultz.
