Conclusions

  1. 1.

    A study was made of the ionic hydrogenation of cyclopropane hydrocarbons, containing a double bond in the side chain.

  2. 2.

    On the example of the ionic hydrogenation of the vinyl- and isopropenylcyclopropanes it was shown that the selective hydrogenation of a double bond, conjugated with a three-membered ring, is possible.

  3. 3.

    In the ionic hydrogenation of alkylidenecyclopropane hydrocarbons, and specifically 1,1-dimethyl-2-methylenecyclopropane and 1,1-dimethyl-2-isopropylidenecyclopropane, the selective hydrogenation of the semicyclic double bond fails to occur and the hydrogenation, products are saturated hydrocarbons with an open chain, and specifically 2,3-dimethylbutane and 2,5-dimethylhexane.

  4. 4.

    A reaction scheme was proposed for the ionic hydrogenation of 1,1-dimethyl-2-isopropylidenecyclopropane, which includes the intermediate formation of 2,5-dimethyl-2,4-hexadiene, which compound is capable of taking part in the ionic hydrogenation reaction, both by the 1,2- and by the 1,4-mechanism.
