Procedure
To 34 ml. of well stirred trifluoroacetic acid, 50 g. of 4-phenyl-4-hydroxycyclohexanone (obtained as in Example 75) is added. After about 5 minutes the mixture is poured into an excess of aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution. The precipitated material is extracted with ether and the extract washed with water and brine and evaporated to dryness to give 4-phenyl-3-cyclohexen-1-one.
