The most widely practiced conversion of limonene is to carvone.
2.
The constituents include phellandrene, limonene, elemol, elemicin, terpineol, carvone, and terpinolene.

These were octane, which smells like anise, and l-carvone, which has a peppermint scent.

7.
They also contain some potassium; magnesium; vitamins neral, neryl acetate, geranyl acetate, geraniol, thymol, and carvone.
8.
This species is then converted to the oxime with base, and the hydroxylamine is removed to give the ketone-containing carvone.
9.
The innate reactivity of the indole and enolate leads to the formation of the C-C bond to form the indole-carvone intermediate.
10.
The experiment succeeded with the trained perfumers used as subjects, who perceived that a mixture of 60 % butanone and 40 % mint carvone smelled like caraway.
