The title compound, C16H24Br2O, was synthesized by three steps from β-himachalene (3,5,5,9-tetra-methyl-2,4a,5,6,7,8-hexa-hydro-1H-benzo-cyclo-heptene), which was isolated from essential oil of the Atlas cedar cedrus atlantica. The asymmetric unit contains two independent mol-ecules with almost identical conformations. Each mol-ecule is built up from two fused six-membered rings, one having a c...

The title compound, C16H28O, was synthesized by three steps from β-himachalene (3,5,5,9-tetra-methyl-2,4a,5,6,7,8-hexa-hydro-1H-benzo-cyclo-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 appended three-membered ring. The six-membered ring has twist-boat conformation, whereas the...

The title compound, C17H24Br2Cl2, was synthesized from β-himachalene (3,5,5,9-tetra-methyl-2,4a,5,6,7,8-hexa-hydro-1H-benzo-cyclo-heptene), which was isolated from the essential oil of the Atlas cedar (Cedrus Atlantica). The asymmetric unit contains two independent mol-ecules. Each mol-ecule is built up from fused six-, seven- and two three-membered rings. In both mol-ecules, the six-membered r...

The volatile oil from the crude gum of Kurdica, from Pistacia atlantica Kurdica, was isolated by hydrodistillation and analyzed through a combination of gas chromatography (GC-FID) and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The essential oil formed 20% of the weight of the crude gum. The major constituent was α-Pinene. The extracted essential oil was then screened for antimicrobial activ...

The title compound, C(15)H(16)N(2)O(4), was synthesized from a mixture of α-himachalene (2-methyl-ene-6,6,9-trimethyl-bicyclo-[5.4.O(1,7)]undec-8-ene) and β-himachalene (2,6,6,9-tetra-methyl-bicyclo-[5.4.0(1,7)]undeca-1,8-diene) which were isolated from an oil of the Atlas cedar (Cedrus atlantica). The asymmetric unit contains two independent mol-ecules. In each of the two mol-ecules, two O ato...

The title heterocyclic compound, C(20)H(27)N(3)O(2)S, was synthesized from 2-(4-methyl-cyclo-hex-3-en-yl)-6-methyl-hepta-2,5-dien-4-one, which was isolated from the essential oil Cedrus atlantica. The thia-diazole ring is essentially planar [maximum deviation 0.006 (2) Å] and it forms a dihedral angle of 18.08 (9)° with the benzene ring. The dihedral angle between the thia-diazole ring and the ...
