D. Terpene is a class of naturally occurring molecules, found in many essential oils from plants, that share the same alkene features. All terpenes have a similar 5 carbon unit that includes an alkene thought to be biologically synthesized from the molecule isoprene. R-carvone (spearmint oil) All terpenes are biosynthesized from molecules with the good leaving group: pyrophosphate (OPP). Loss of this OPP leads to the formation of a resonance stabilized carbocation. The new carbocation can undergo a nucleophilic attack from a n-bond as seen in acid-catalyzed hydration and hydrohalogenation, forming a new carbocation. This new carbocation can undergo an E1 reaction to form a new alkene. Add the curved arrows of the following reaction. COPP OPP OPP COPP
