Abstract
These facts suggested the possibility that an unusual ketone reaction of some generality might be involved. For this reason an investigation of the structure and mechanism of formation of these unknown hydrocarbons was initiated. On the basis of an analysis and a molecular weight determination by the Rast procedure, Hoff mann assigned to his hydrocarbon IV the molecular formula CZ4H28. This formula would result if two molecules ...
