KMnO4 (5.71 g) was ground into a fine powder and combined with acidic alumina (22.55 g) and water (5.6 mL) for 5 minutes in order to form a homogenous mixture. (−)-β-Pinene (1.16 mL), and methylene chloride (200 mL) were placed in a 250 mL roundbottom flask; the moistened KMnO4/acidic alumina was added in small portions slowly to the solution. As the KMnO4/acidic alumina was added, the reaction turned into a dark purple color solution. The reaction was allowed to continue to stir until TLC indicated all starting material had reacted. The solution was filtered through fritted glass, and the residue was washed twice with 50 mL of methylene chloride. The filtrate was concentrated and yielded 6,6-dimethyl-bicyclo[3.1.1]heptan-2-one as a light yellow oil. The oil was purified via column chromatography (85:15, Hex: EtOAc) and like fractions were combined. 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3): (ppm) 0.96 (s, 3H), 1.34 (s, 3H), 1.59 (d, 1H), 1.86-2.13 (m, 2H), 2.20-2.30 (m, 1H), 2.31-2.43 (m, 1H), 2.45-2.68 (m, 3H). (ESI, Pos) m/z 161.0 (M+23).
