Novel Tocopherol Compounds. Part 10. A Facile Synthesis of O-Trimethylsilyl-5a-halo-α-tocopherols. -O-Trimethylsilyl-5a-halo-αtocopherols (III) are prepared by acid-promoted dehydrative cyclization of (I). The reaction proceeds through a transient ortho-quinone methide and subsequent addition of tr
A novel mechanism for the formation of 5,6-tocopheryldione (~t-tocored, 4) from c~-tocopherol (vitamin E, l) has been established. The reaction has been shown to proceed via a 5-alkoxytocopherol intermediate, with cleavage of the 5a-methyl group as methanol, contrary to results reported so far in th
