Valuable chiral sources of C(10)-substituted camphors and C(10)-substituted fenchones can be straightforwardly obtained by treatment of an appropriate, easily obtainable, camphor- or fenchone-derived 2-methylenenorbornan-1-ol with an electrophilic reagent. The process takes place via a tandem regioselective carbon-carbon double-bond addition/stereocontrolled Wagner-Meerwein

The first two stable enantiomerically pure chiral N-H oxaziridines, derived from camphor and fenchone, are shown to act as electrophilic sources of nitrogen upon reaction with various carbon nucleophiles. Nitrogen is transferred, together with the camphor/fenchone unit, when deprotonated esters

The in vitro metabolism of (+)-fenchone was examined in human liver microsomes and recombinant enzymes. Biotransformation of (+)-fenchone was investigated by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. (+)-Fenchone was found to be oxidized to 6-exo-hydroxyfenchone, 6-endo-hydroxyfenchone and 10-hydroxyfenchone by human liver microsomal P450
