✦ Synopsis


Abstract

Interaction of tropone and phenylmagnesium bromide yields 2‐phenyl‐2,7‐dihydrotropone (II). This compound is in thermal equilibrium with 2‐phenyl‐6,7‐dihydrotropone (III) in a 1: 4 ratio.

The reaction of 2‐chlorotropone with isopropylmagnesium bromide yields a mixture of chloroisopropyldihydrotropones, which upon dehydrochlorination gives rise to 2‐isopropyltropone. This compound may be converted into 3‐isopropyltropolone (α‐thujaplicine).
