Abstract

In contrast to the corresponding cyclopentanedione derivative, 5,5-dimethyl-2-isopropyl-2-phenylsulfinyl-1,3-cyclohexanedione (3) does not undergo the expected cis-elimination of phenylsulfenic acid on warming in CH2Cl2 to afford the title compound 1, but instead gives an equimolar mixture of 5,5-dimethyl-2-(1 ′-isopropyl-4′,4′-dimethyl-2′,6′-dioxocyclohexyl)-2-isopropyl-1, 3-cyclohexanedione (9) and S-phenyl benzenethiosulfonate (10). These products result from dimerization of the 4,4-dimethyl-1-isopropyl-2,6-dioxocyclohexylradical (7) andthephenylsulfinyl radical (8), respectively.
