During the course of experiments concerned with the Stobbe condensation of 4- benzoyloxycycloheptanone (I), it was discovered that I rearranges to an isomeric keto acid on treatment with potassium 1-butoxide. This keto acid was not obtained in crystalline form but was characterized by its conversion to a semicarbazone and by the formation of the 2, 4- dinitrophenylhydrazones of its ethyl and methyl esters by treatment with 2, 4- ...
