Abstract
The correlation between structural, stereochemical as well as electronic features and ambergris odor of some tricyclic ethers is established based on quantum chemical calculation method. A definite structural fragment (a "new ambergris triangle") with certain electronic properties determining the origin of the odor is revealed. The influence of HOMO-LUMO energy gaps and total energies of some ambergris compounds on their odor intensity is investigated.Entities:
