Abstract
Protonation of cyclohexenone- and cyclopentenone derivatives 2 and 6b, and following enolization in CDC13/CF3COOH is proven. Cyclohexenone d erivative 6a is protonated at the heteroatom. Cycloheptenone 10 is pro tonated at the heteroatom as well as at C-3. On the basis of MNDO- and AM1-calculations the different protonation is explained by sterical h indrance of the coplanarity, and by thermodynamics.
