Participants

Reaction Steps

A dehydrating compound was prepared by the dropwise addition of octyldimethylchlorosilane to an equal molar solution of 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3,5-heptanedione and triethylamine in ethyl ether. The mixture was heated until it refluxed for a period of 6 hours, and filtered to remove salts. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure to yield 3-(octyldimethylsiloxy)-2,2,6,6-tetramethylhept-3-ene-5-one.
