Abstract

Among the cleavages of the bicyclo [3.1. 0]-hexane system, 2 that of thujone (I) by mineral acids presents an anomaly since the reporteda formation of carvotanacetone (11) involves a violation of the Markownikoff rule as applied to the opening of three-membered rings by acidic agents4 Evidence is presented here to the effect that carvotanacetone (11) is not a product of the acid-catalyzed cleavage; that the products are those pre-
