Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

In a 250 ml, round-bottomed flask was added N,N-dimethylformamide (3.5 mL) in dichloromethane (30 mL), and the mixture was cooled to −10° C. Phosphoryl trichloride (4 mL) was added dropwise, and the solution was warmed up to room temperature. 4,4-Dimethylcyclohex-2-enone (5.5 mL) was then added slowly, and the mixture was heated to reflux overnight. The reaction mixture was cooled and quenched with a 0° C. solution of sodium acetate (25 g in 50 mL water). The aqueous layer was extracted with diethyl ether (200 mL×3). The combined organic layers were dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated to give the product.
