Abstract

22-55% also obtained from IV in higher (90%) yield by an Oppenauer oxidation with cyclohexanone and aluminum isopropoxide in benzene. From the molecular formula (CleH1402) of VII, and the fact a structure corresponding to either IVc IV I1 or IVd, five possible structures (partial formulas VIIa-VIIe) were considered. The infrared spectrum of VI1 (Fig. 2) contained a strong band at 3.0 p indicating the presence of a hydroxyl group but ...
