Bulletin of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR, Division of chemical science Aims and scope

Summary

  1. 1.

    The precipitate formed by reaction of phenylmagnesium bromide with fenchone was investigated, and it was shown that, contrary to Leroide's view, this substance is not a complex of fenchone with phenylmagnesium bromide, but is a complex formed between a basis magnesium salt, magnesium bromide and fenchone.

  2. 2.

    2-Phenyl- and 2-p-tolyl-fenchyl alcohols were prepared in good yield with the aid of organolithium compounds.
