Abstract
The potential generality of the annulation sequence shown in Scheme I1 (10-11-12-13- 14/15) has been examined in model systems. Dehydrogenation of a-formylcyclohexanones lla-d with 1 equiv of DDQ rapidly produces a,@-unsaturated a-formyl ketones 12a-d, even when the structures (12a, b) would permit over-oxidation to a benzenoid system. DDQ also converts 2-acetyl-4, 4-dimethylcyclohexanone to its 2, 3-dehydro derivative, but this ...
