The Grignard reaction of ketoximes has been well-known as a pr .aration method of aziridines(3).

The present study demonstrates that the cyclization.of a certain kind of ketoximes involving an aryl group is catalyzed by arylmagnesium halide. ?-Cyclohexyliden yclohexanone(4) was reacted with phenylmagnesium bromide in the stream of nitrogen using purif 3d ether as a solvent to afford 2-(1-phenyl)cyclohexylcyclohexanone(I), m.p. 64-68'(methanol), yield 65-75% and 6-(1-phenyl)eyclohaxyl-6-oxo-n-hexanoic acid(II), m.p. 8l'(petroleum benzine), yield 5-7%. Structural proof for II was
