, p. 1921 - 1930 (2007/10/03)
The reactions of selected allylic acetates with methanol, ethanol, n-propyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol and tert-butyl alcohol in the presence of catalytic amounts of cerium(III) chloride are described. Allylic alkyl ethers, bis-allylic ethers and 1,3-dienes were obtained depending on the structure of the acetates.
Synthesis of Alkyl Allylic Ethers and 1,3-Dienes by the Reaction of Conjugated Cyclohexenones with Sodium Borohydride-Cerium(III) Chloride in Aliphatic Alcohols
Uzarewicz, A.,Dresler, R.
, p. 1655 - 1658 (2007/10/03)
The reaction of conjugated cyclohexenones 1,3-containing 3-methyl-2-en-1-one moiety with NaBH4/CeCl3*7H2O in primary aliphatic alcohols (MeOH, EtOH, n-PrOH) affords alkyl allylic ethers and 1,3-dienes.In isopropanol or tert-butanol only 1,3-dienes are obtained.Ketones 4-6 containing 2-methyl-2-en-1-one moiety are reduced under the same conditions to the corresponding allylic alcohols irrespective of the alcohol used.Key words: reduction, α,β-unsaturated ketones, allylic alcohols, alkyl allylic ethers, sodium borohydride, cerium(III) chloride
