摘要:
A process for preparing trans-chrysanthemic acid which comprises reacting a mixture of alkyl trans-chrysanthemate and alkyl cis-chrysanthemate with an equimolar amount or less of an alkali with respect to the trans-isomer in the presence of water or an alcohol to hydrolyze the trans-isomer predominantly and separating the hydrolyzed trans-isomer from the unreacted cis-isomer.
摘要:
Rose oxide, which is an important olfactive compound valuable in the art of perfumery, is advantageously produced from citronellol through a novel synthetic route comprising(1) anodic alkoxylation of citronellol using as a supporting electrolyte an alkali metal aromatic sulfonate,(2) dealkoxylation of the resulting 2,6-dimethyl-3-alkoxyoct-1-en-8-ol in the presence of a palladium or nickel complex, and then(3) cyclization of the resulting dehydrocitronellol in the presence of an acid.
摘要:
A novel optically active cis-4,5-disubstituted imidazolidin-2-one derivative of the formula: ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 is a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl group or benzyl and R.sup.2 is a chiral aralkyl group optionally having at least one of C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkoxy and hydroxyl groups is produced asymmetrically by the reaction of 1,3-dibenzyl-cis-4,5-dicarboxy-imidazolidin-2-one or its anhydride with an optically active secondary amine of the formula: ##STR2## wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are each as defined above and is transformed into the lactone of 1,3-dibenzyl-cis-4-carboxy-5-hydroxymethyl-imidazolidin-2-one, which is a key intermediate in the synthesis of d-biotin.
