Abstract
ABSTRACT This paper concerns the reactions of menthone (I) with alkyl-amines and amino acids in the presence of sodium cyanoborohydride. The reaction of (I) with propylamine gave 3-propylamino-p-menthane (65% yield, cis/trans = 57:43). N-(2-Isopropyl-5-methylcylohexan-l-yl) glycine methyl-ester was obtained from (I) and glycine methylester.
