Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The title compound, C16H23Br3, was synthesized from β-himachalene (3,5,5,9-tetra-methyl-2,4a,5,6,7,8-hexa-hydro-1H-benzocyclo-heptene), which was isolated from the essential oil of the Atlas cedar (Cedrus Atlantica). The mol-ecule is built up from fused six- and seven-membered rings and an additional three-membered ring from the reaction of himachalene with dibromo-carbene. The six-membered ring has an envelope conformation (the flap atom being the C atom shared with the three-membered ring, whereas the seven-membered ring displays a screw boat conformation; the dihedral angle between the rings (defined by the near coplanar atoms) is 56.5 (2)°.
