Abstract

Summary The synthesis of two series of unsymmetrical unsaturated 1, 4-diketones with one terminal mesityl group is outlined. The nitric acid oxidation of two typical furans with one a- mesityl group proceeded without difficulty and gave the corresponding unsaturated 1, 4- diketones. The bearing of this on the mechanism is discussed.
