The dibromobicyclic ketone 5 was synthesized by a three-step process starting with 2-tert-butyl-1-naphthol.Dehydrobromination of 5 by reaction with DBU resulted in isolation of the 1-naphthalenone 7.Formation of 7 is attributed to a shift in the int

Dehydrobromination of the dibromobicyclic ketone (4) at 0 deg C resulted in the formation of ketone (5); the remarkably rapid benzyl shift in this reaction is attributed to formation and rearrangement of ketone (2), a unique example of a molecule wi
