Abstract: | 3, 5-Dimethyl-4-carbethoxy-2-cyclohexen-1-one has been synthesized through the Knoevenagel condensation1, which is then subjected to alkylation and acylation at α-position. The resulting products are hydrolyzed and decarboxylated to α-substituted cyclohexenones. 3, 5-Dimethyl-2-cyclohexen-1-one is converted by N-bromosuccinimide to phenol via enolization2. |
