1. (+/-)-2-, (+/-)-3- and 4-tert.-Butylcyclohexanone are reduced in the rabbit to secondary alcohols, which are excreted extensively conjugated with glucuronic acid. 2. The major metabolite of (+/-)-2-tert.-butylcyclohexanone is (+)-cis-2-tert.-butylcyclohexanol, which has been isolated from the urine as [(+)-cis-2-tert.-butylcyclohexyl beta-d-glucosid]uronic acid.
