Sodium Bicarbonate → HCID 10684188, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Paratoluenesulfonic acid (20 mg) was added to a solution of 400 mg of 4,4-dimethyl-1,1-(ethylenedioxy)-3-(10-hydroxydecyl)-3-(phenylsulfonyl)-cyclohexane in 30 ml of chloroform and 6 ml of acetone. The resulting mixture was reacted at 50° C. for 24 hours. To the reaction mixture, were added 10 ml of a saturated sodium bicarbonate solution, followed by extraction with dichloromethane. The organic layer was washed with saturated saline and dried over magnesium sulfate. The solvent was then distilled off under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by chromatography on a silica gel column while using hexane-ethyl acetate, whereby 4,4-dimethyl-3-(10-hydroxydecyl)-2-cyclohexen-1-one was obtained in the form of a colorless oil. Yield: 78%
