Procedure

7-Cyclohexadecen-1-one can be advantageously prepared from the known 1,8-cyclo-hexadecanedione by partial reduction and subsequent acid dehydration (a mixture of 7-cyclohexadecen-1-one and 8-cyclohexadecen-1-one is obtained). 8-Cyclohexadecen-1-one can be similarly obtained from the known 1,9-cyclohexadecanedione. A mixture of 1,8/1,9-cyclohexadecanediones can also be used and this is advantageous particularly for the preparation of the (E,Z)-7,8-cyclohexaden-1-one mixture. 1,8/1,9-cyclohexadecanediones are known for example from J. Org. Chem. 1968, 33, 4541 and U.S. Pat. No. 3,935,270.
