Description
4-Phenylcyclohexanone undergoes Ruthenium-catalyzed reaction with tributylamine to yield 2-butyl-4-phenylcyclohexanone and 2,6-dibutyl-4-phenylcyclohexanone. Wittig reaction of 4-phenylcyclohexanone with (carbethoxymethylene)triphenylphosphorane under microwave irradiation has been investigated.4-Phenylcyclohexanone was used in the preparation of new cardo diamine monomer, 1,1-bis[4-(4-aminophenoxy)phenyl]-4-phenylcyclohexane bearing a 4-phenylcyclohexylidene unit
