Procedure
A 12 g quantity of cis-trans mixture of 1-acetyl-4-isopropylcyclohexane and sodium methoxide in an amount equimolar to the mixture are heated in 150 ml of methanol for 6 hours with stirring. The reaction mixture is distilled in a vacuum to remove the solvent, 50 ml of water is added to the residue, and the resulting solution is subjected to extraction with 50 ml of ether three times. The extract is washed with water, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and thereafter distilled in a vacuum to remove the solvent. The residue is distilled in a vacuum, giving 9 g of trans-1-acetyl-4-isopropylcyclohexane boiling at 109° to 113° C./18-19 mm Hg.
