Abstract
Abstract 1-Hydroxyazulene was obtained as an unstable green oil by the reduction of 1-acetoxyazulene with LiAlH4. The compound did not show an equilibrium with its keto forms. 3-Hydroxyguaiazulene similarly obtained from 3-acetoxyguaiazulene was extremely unstable and easily changed to a mixture of its keto form and dimeric compound.
