Abstract

Abstract: Two types of processes are described which involve the selective transformation of unactivated carbon-hydrogen bonds in a ketone, cis-2-decalone, cis-1, which possesses conventionally far more reactive bonds. The first type of process involves irradiation of decatungstate, Wlo0324-in the presence of cis-1 producing, tram-2-decalone, trawl, the product resulting from epimerization of an unactivated tertiary CH bond remote from the ...
