What is it about?
The allylic oxidation of (1S,3R,8R)‐2,2‐dichloro‐3,7,7,10‐tetramethyltricyclo[6,4,0,01,3]dodec‐9‐ene into the corresponding enone with N‐bromosuccinimide (NBS), CrO3 and t‐BuOOH has been studied. A good yield and high selectivity were obtained in the presence of t‐BuOOH and a copper catalyst.

Why is it important?
It's a cheep and simple procedure to get acces to terpenic enones which are valuble synthons in heterocyclic chemistry.
