Procedure

1.52 g (10 mmol) of pulegone (2-isopropylidene-5-methylcyclohexanone) and 14.3 mg (0.1 mmol) of CuBr in 10 ml of dry THF are introduced at room temperature. 9.5 ml (11 mmol) of 10% trimethylaluminum in toluene and 1.3 g (12 mmol) of trimethylsilyl chloride are added at 0° C. It is stirred for 5 more hours at room temperature, hydrolyzed with 5 ml of water and extracted twice with 30 ml of ether each, and the organic phases are combined. After the solvent is evaporated, the product is distilled at 10 torr and 120° C. in a bulb tube. 1.45 g (86% of theory) of 2-tert-butyl-5-methylcyclohexanone is obtained.
