Abstract
The Prins reaction of 2-carene with formaldehyde has been studied. The main reaction product is 2-hydroxymethyl-3-carene. The dehydration of 2-hydroxy-methyl-3-carene is accompanied by a skeletal rearrangement of the carane structure with the formation of products having a seven-membered ring.
