Induced halogenation of alkyl cyclohexenyl ketones involving metal halides, hydrohalogenic acids, and hydrogen peroxide
摘要:
The induced halogenation and hydroxyhalogenation of alkyl cyclohexenyl ketones in a system [MHlg + HHlg or HHlg]-H(2)O(2) or in NaOCl was performed and optimum reaction conditions were established. Under mild conditions the electrophilic addition of the halogen or the acid occurred at the multiple bond of the ring with the formation of the corresponding dihalo or hydroxyhalo derivatives of cycloaliphatic ketones. From the compounds obtained epoxy- and dioxyketones of aliphatic series were prepared. Chloro(bromo)hydrins of ketones from the alkylcyclohexane series and oxiranes based thereon are reactive compounds and can be employed as synthons in the organic synthesis.
α-Alkynols 1 are converted in high yield and selectivity into conjugatedenynes 2 or α,β-unsaturatedketones 3 by treatment with acid zeolites. The exclusive production of compounds 2 or 3 depends on the nature of the starting material 1 and experimental conditions.
