Participants

Reaction Steps

To a suspension of palladium on carbon (3.75 g, 25% wt) in 200 mL ethylacetate was added a 1:2 mixture of 4-(2-Methoxy-phenyl)-cyclohex-3-enone and 4-(2-Methoxy-phenyl)-cyclohex-2-enone (15 g, 75.0 mmol) under argon. The suspension was stirred under a hydrogen at 1 atm. for 6.5 h, filtered through celite, concentrated in vacuo, and crystallized from ethylacetate to give 4-(2-Methoxy-phenyl)-cyclohexanone.
