Reaktionsschritte

Acetone (11.6 g.) in ethanol (50 c.c.) was stirred at below 0°C and 1-amino-3,3,5-trimethylcyclohexyl hydroperoxide (17.3 g.; 80% pure) added. After stirring for ca. 1 hour the solid had dissolved. To the solution was added magnesium sulphate and it was stored at 0° overnight. Filtration and distillation gave acetone and dihydroisophorone (probably containing some symmetrical amino-peroxide ##EQU20## and a product (2.2 g.), b.p. 75° - 78°/1.0 mm, had a peroxide equivalent 239.4 and gave N, 6.3% an elemental analysis.
