Procedure
66.0 g of potassium tert-butoxide dissolved in 850 ml of tetrahydrofuran was added to the solution of 140 g (0.64 mol; 70% pure) of 3-methyl-5-(1,2,2-trimethylbicyclo-[3.1.0]hex-3-yl)pent-3-en-2-one in 850 ml of the same solvent at 0° C. After 30 minutes of stirring at room temperature the reaction mixture was poured on 1 l of aqueous ammonium chloride solution. After the usual workup the crude product was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel (eluent: hexane/MTBE 19:1) to give three fractions: 5.1, 28.1 and 22.3 g containing respectivly 36, 78, and 92% of 3-methyl-5-(1,2,2-trimethylbicyclo[3.1.0]hex-3-yl)pent-4-en-2-one (˜40% yield).
