( S )‐ and ( R )‐[6‐ 2 H]Carvones and ( S )‐ and ( R )‐[2‐ 2 H]limonenes, non‐radioactive tracers for the studies on the biosynthesis and metabolism of monoterpenoids in higher plants, were synthesized from ( R )‐ and ( S )‐carvones by regioselective deuteration via a convenient route with highly enantiomeric purity. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
