A convenient synthesis of βγ-unsaturated carboxylic acids and esters. The isomeric 5-t-butylcyclohex-2-enecarboxylic acids

Abstract

A procedure is described for the conversion of six-membered ring allylic bromides via the corresponding nitriles into βγ-unsaturated acids and esters. In this way cis- and trans-5-t-butylcyclohex-2-enecarboxylic acids have been prepared. Configurations of the latter are assigned on the basis of hydrogenation to the known saturated acids.
