Selective monohydrogenation of cross conjugated 2,5-cyclohexadien-1-ones 1 with Fe2(CO)9 and water forming under unusually mild conditions the cyclohexadienol complexes 2 is applied to various related compounds.The regioselectivity of this reaction is tested with differently substituted derivatives.A mechanism explaining the observed regioselectivities and the pH dependence of the stereochemistry is discussed.
