A novel two-carbon ring enlargement procedure, in which medium- and large-ring 1-vinylcycloalkanols are thermoisomerized in a flow reactor system at temperatures of 600°C to about 650°C, produces the isomeric ring-expanded cycloalkanones directly and efficiently. This two-step ring expansion protocol can easily be applied several times successively. For e.g., the musk odorant cyclopentadecanone (Exaltone?) is prepared from cycloundecanone in two repetitive cycles. Thermo-isomerization of the corresponding ethynylic cycloalkanols gives in moderate yields the bishomologous α,β-unsaturated macrocyclic (E)-2-cycloalkenones. A reaction mechanism via alkyl hydroxyallyl biradical intermediates is proposed.
