General description

Cyclohexanone diethyl ketal (1,1-Diethoxycyclohexane) reacts with 1,3,2-benzodioxaborole [catecholborane (CB)] to form the corresponding ether. It undergoes thermal elimination reaction in gas-phase to yield 1-ethoxycyclohexene and ethanol.

Application

Cyclohexanone diethyl ketal may be used in the preparation of 1-ethoxycyclohexene.

The gas-phase thermal elimination of 2,2-diethoxypropane was found to give ethanol, acetone, and ethylene, while 1,1-diethoxycyclohexane yielded 1-ethoxycyclohexene and ethanol. The kinetics determinations were carried out, with the reaction vessels deactivated with allyl bromide, and the presence of the free
