Unexpected Formation of Previously Unknown Cyclohex-2-enone Dreivative via Carbonyl -ene-Synthesis at Room Temperature

Abstract

The unexpected formation of 6-methyl-2-(2-methylpropenyl)cyclohex-2 enone (6) during a deprotecting reaction of 1,3-dioxane (5) via an interesting carbonyl-ene reaction at room temperature with original aim to obtain 4,8-dimethyl-5-oxonon-6-en-1-al (4) is reported. An alternative route to aldehyde (4) is also presented.
