Abstract
Abstract The chromic acid oxidation of 2-tert-butyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene (1)1 was carried out to provide 1-tetralones 2 and 3 for hydrogenolysis studies.2 We noted the ratio of 2 to 3 as 5.8:1.0, which prompted the preparation of 4 and 7 and their oxidation. The oxidation of 4 yielded 5:6 (3:1).
