Clemmensen Reduction. XI. Fragmentation Reactions of Some 3-Acetylcycloalkanones
Bailey, Karen E.,Davis, Brian R.
, p. 1827 - 1834 (2007/10/03)
Clemmensen reduction of a series of 3-acetylcycloalkanones yields, as the major product, an acyclic unsaturated ketone, the product of fragmentation.Some normal carbonyl-methylene reduction also occurs.A mechanistic rationale for the fragmentation is advanced.
