Diethyl Ether → HCID 54155587, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2-isopropenyl-1-propenylcyclohexan-1-ol (0.090 g; 5.10-4 mol) and dichloro-bis-(benzonitrile)-palladium(II) (0.008 g; 0.2.10-4 mol) in tetrahydrofuran (5cc) is kept at a temperature of the order of 20° C. under an inert atmosphere. After a reaction time of 6 hours, diethyl ether (75 cc) is added and the mixture is then washed with water (5×15 cc). After drying with magnesium sulphate, filtration and evaporation of the solvent under reduced pressure (20 mm Hg; 2.7 kPa), alcohol starting material (0.050 g) is obtained together with 3,5-dimethylcyclodec-5-en-1-one (0.023 g), which has the following characteristics:
