Feasibility of Intramolecular Proton Transfers in Terpene Biosynthesis -Guiding Principles
On the basis of results from quantum chemical calculations, the feasibility of an extensive series of intramolecular proton-transfer reactions postulated to occur during terpene biosynthesis is assessed and guiding principles are proposed.
