Abstract
Two methods for the synthesis of 2-oxabicyclo[4.10.0]hexadec-1 (6)-ene from cyclododecanone have been suggested. The most convenient method involves the preparation of 2-(3-tert-butoxypropyl)cyclododecanone by phase-transfer catalyzed alkylation of cyclododecanone with 1-bromo-3- tert-butoxypropane followed by removal of the protecting tert-butyl gr oup and elimination of water.
