Abstract

spectrum which shows absorptions at 1710 and 1130 cm-', characteristic of a cyclohexanone carbonyl group and an ether group, respectively5 (Scheme 111). The possibility that the purified sample of 9 might be contaminated with fused ring isomer 11 was excluded on the basis of the following experiment. Admixture of the reaction product with 2, 2, 6, 6-tetramethylcyclohexanone (a nonenolizable and hence difficultly oxidizable ketone ...
