PROCESS FOR THE ISOMERISATION OF AN EXO DOUBLE BOND

The present invention concerns a process for the isomerisation of an exo double bond toward an endo double bond being performed in the presence of a catalyst system comprising palladium (Pd) or platinium (Pt) and molecular hydrogen or a hydrogen source.

Retinoids, X. - A Novel Way to 5-Ethyl-18-norretinoids

The synthesis of 5-ethyl-18-norretinal (2) is described; the key step is the cyclization of acrolein (3) with 2-methyl-3-hexanone (4) to 2-ethyl-6,6-dimethyl-2-cyclohexen-1-one (5).
