Abstract

Method B. Preparation of (1, 3, 3, 4, 5, 6-Hexamethy1-2-0~ 0-cyclohex-4-en-1-y1) aoetic Acid (15a).# en the hydrolysis by method A was performed under prolonged conditions (eg, more than 30 min), ring-opened acid 15a was produced. After evaporation of the solvents, the residue was washed with a mixture of water and ether, and the aqueous layer was slightly acidified with acetic acid and extracted several times with ether to give solid 1Sa: ...
