Perchloric Acid → HCID 20442879, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

The same procedure as in Example 9 was repeated using 272 mg of 1,5,6-trimethoxy-3,6-diethoxy-3-methyl-1,4-cyclohexadiene, 10 mg of methylene chloride and 10 mg of perchloric acid recovering 230 mg of an oily crude product. The crude product was purified by silica gel column chromatograph using a 20:1 benzene-ethyl acetate mixture giving 220 mg of 1,5,6-trimethoxy-6-ethoxy-3-methylidene-1,4-cyclohexadiene in 92% of theoretical yield. The compound thus obtained was identified by NMR.
