Abstract

Abstract We performed the Rupe rearrangement of 1-ethynylcyclohexan-1-ol in near-critical water to study the reaction under high temperature conditions. The final product thus obtained was primarily 1-cyclohexen-1-ylethanone which was identified by GC-MS. The influences of reaction time, temperature, and initial reactant-to-water ratio on the yield of 1- cyclohexen-1-ylethanone were examined. The yield of 1-cyclohexen-1-ylethanone was 49 ...
