What is the aldol condensation of 2 5-hexanedione?
The intramolecular aldol condensation of 2,5-hexanedione (2,5-HD) to 3-methylcyclopent-2-enone (MCP) is an important reaction (Scheme 1) because of the important use of MCP as an intermediate for producing many natural products such as trichothecenes, cortisone and precapnelladiene [4].Mar 10, 2017
