반응 단계

The ketone, 2-carbomethoxymethyl-2-ethylcyclohexanone (IX) (141 mmol, 28 g) was stirred in 1.25 l of ethyl acetate (dried over 3A molecular sieves) and treated with 169 mmol (32.5 g) of PhSeCl. The reaction was stirred under nitrogen for 4 hours then treated with 250 mL of water. The mixture was shaken vigorously in a separatory funnel and the organic phase was returned to the reaction flask. Tetrahydrofuran (550 mL) was then added followed by 35 mL of 30% H2O2 (aq.) added dropwise. The reaction mixture was stirred for one hour then washed with 500 mL of water and 500 mL of saturated Na2CO3 (aq.). The product was then dried over MgSO4 and concentrated in vacuo. Flash chromatography (4 inches diameter column, 20% ethyl acetate in petroleum ether eluent, 51/2 inches of silica gel) afforded 15.3 g (78.0 mmol, 55%) of the product as a pale yellow oil. Rf =0.9 in 15% ethyl acetate/petroleum ether on TLC.
