Abstract

The ring-opening reaction of pulegone hydrochloride (2a) with nucleophiles such as NaOH, LiNMe2, and LAH, reported by Plesek'and Overberger, 2 serves as a convenient means for the synthesis of acyclic chiral compounds (see Scheme I). In conjunction with our continuing interest in the stereocontrolled synthesis of steroid side chains? an application of this useful ring-opening reaction of a-(2-halo-2-methylethyl) cyclohexanones was envisioned.
