Summary
-
1.
Reaction of 6-methoxy-2-naphthylmagnesium bromide with the enol ether, 3-methoxy-2-methyl-2-cyclohexen-1-one (VIII), and subsequent hydrolysis with hydrochloric acid gave the tricyclic ketone (XI).
-
2.
Bromination of 3-methoxy-2-cyclohexen-1-one (I) and 3-methoxy-2-methyl-2 cyclohexen-1-one (VIII) and subsequent treatment of the intermediate dibromides (II) and (IX) with aqueous sodium carbonate gave 2-bromo-3-methoxy-2-cyclohexen-1-one (III) and probably 6-bromo-3-methoxy-2-methyl-2-cyclohexen-1-one (X), respectively. 3. 3-Methoxy-2-cyclohexen-1-one (I) and 3-methoxy-2-methyl-2-cyclohexen-1-one (VIII) are reduced by lithium in liquid ammonia with formation of cyclohexanone and 2-methylcyclohexanone, respectively.
-
4.
3-Methoxy-2-cyclohexen-1-one (I) undergoes the Claisen reaction with formic and oxalic esters at the methylene group in the 6-position.
