Abstract
Abstract The photochemical behaviour of the title compound, newly synthesized in four steps from 4,4-dimethylcyclohexanone, is compared to that of 4,4-dimethyl- and 4,4,6-trimethyl-2-cyclohexenone. All three enones undergo rearrangement to bicyclo[3.1.0]hexan-2-ones and 3-isopropyl-2-cyclopentenones in benzene, t.butanol and acentonitrile, but only the CF 3 -enone is also reduced to the saturated ketone in the latter two solvents.
