Abstract
SOME years ago, Goodway and West1 reported that low yields of the maleic anhydride adduct corresponding to α-phellandrene were obtainable from β-phellandrene, and it was considered probable that the l-α-phellandrene adduct isolated was derived by the thermal decomposition of the primary resinous material obtained from the l-β-phellandrene.
