The photolysis mixture was extracted with 0.25N NaOH, washed with ether, acidified with 1N HCl, and extracted with chloroform. The chloroform was dried over anhydrous MgSO4 and stripped to give a crude yellow solid. The photolysis was repeated and the combined crude product from these reactions was chromatographed through silica gel (0.063-0.2 mm) using benzene-ethyl acetate. The solid obtained from the chromatography was recrystallized from benzene to give 2.76 g (11%) of 2-(2',6'-dimethyl-4'-t-butylphenyl)-5,5-dimethyl-1,3-cyclohexanedione as white crystals, mp 244°-49° C.
