Abstract

Ketene acetals VI11 and VIIIa with the nucleophilic center in a cyclopentane and cyclohexane ring have been prepared by the dealcoholation of the corresponding orthoesters VI1 and VIIa. These dealcoholations proceed in satisfactory yields only with sublimed aluminum t-butoxide. Methyl and t-butyl normal esters are significant reaction products and evidence is presented as to their mode of formation. Attempts to prepare the ...
