2-(3,3,5,5-Tetramethylcyclohex-1-enyl)phenol → 2-(3,3,5,5-Tetramethylcyclohexyl)phenol

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-(3,3,5,5-tetramethylcyclohex-1-enyl)phenol (1.7 g, 7.4 mmol) produced in Example (102a) in methanol (30 mL) was added 10% palladium on carbon (0.5 g, wet), followed by stirring for 27 hours at room temperature and atmospheric pressure under a hydrogen atmosphere. The reaction mixture was filtered through Celite, and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to give 1.7 g of a crude product of the title compound as a light yellow oil.
