2-Cyclohexen-1-one, 4,4-dimethyl- → Cyclohexanone, 4,4-dimethyl-

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4,4-dimethyl-2-cyclohexen-1-one (10 g) in ethanol (100 ml) was added 10% palladium on carbon (1 g), and hydrogen gas at atmosphere pressure for 4 hours. To the reaction mixture was filtered. The filtrate was concentrated by evaporation under reduced pressure to give 4,4-dimethylcyclohexanone (10.03 g).
