The Ritter reaction was studied for some individual monoterpenes of the p-menthane series (p-menth-1-ene, p-menth-2-ene, p-menth-3-ene, cis- and trans-p-menth-8-ene, dipentene, cis- and trans-p-menthan-8-ol, and ..cap alpha..-terpineol) with acetonitrile in the presence of concentrated sulfuric acid at 20/sup 0/C. The stereochemical structure of the reaction products (substituted amides) was established. Possible paths were proposed for their formation through carbocations in accordance with the previously described transformations of stable carbocations generated from the analogous monoterpenes in superacidic media.
