Participants

Reaction Steps

11.0 g (41 m mols) of 3-(butenyl)-1-methyl-4-(2-tetrahydropyranyl-oxy-methyl)-pyrrolidone were dissolved in a mixture of 60 ml of absolute methyle chloride and 30 ml of absolute methanol. At -70° C ozone was introduced into this solution, while stirring, until the solution had a blue color. The reduction of the ozonide with dimethyl sulfide and the isolation of the aldehyde was effected in analogy to Example (5).
