Reaction Steps

6.06 g of bicyclo[10.3.0]pentadec-1,12-diene--crude material; see Example 1--in 40 ml of toluene were hydrogenated at 100°, under atmospheric pressure, in the presence of 0.6 g of 10% palladium on charcoal. After 60 min. of hydrogenation, the reaction mixture was cooled, filtered on CELITE and finally distilled (0.02 Torr--bath temperature: 140°) to afford 5.2 g (84% yield) of the desired title compound having a purity of 93% according to vapour phase chromatography analysis (CARBOWAX 10%--1.6 m--140°). The compound thus prepared was found identical with a sample prepared according to J. Amer. Chem. Soc. 79, 5558 (1957).
