Abstract

The acid-catalyzed reactions of several cycloalkanones, such as cyclopentanone (1a), 2- methylcyclopentanone (1b), cyclohexanone (1c), 2-methylcyclohexanone (1d), and 2- isopropyl-5-methylcyclohexanone (1e), with formaldehyde were investigated. These reactions involved an aldol condensation analogous to the Prins reaction, and they afforded methylol derivatives and cyclic ethers. It was found that the formation of the products is ...
