반응 단계

A mixture of 19.6 g of the pyrrolidine-enamine of p-menthone, 10 ml of methylvinyl ketone and 150 ml of anhydrous benzene is refluxed under nitrogen for 20 hours. The mixture is then cooled and treated with 6 g of sodium acetate in 12 ml of water as well as with 12 ml of acetic acid. The mixture is again refluxed for 4 hours. Then, the product is extracted with benzene and the solvent evaporated. The residue is fractionated in vacuo and there is obtained 1-methyl-4-isopropyl-2-(3'-oxobutyl)-cyclohexan-3-one with a boiling point of 88°-90°C.
