Patent number: 4026960
Abstract: 2,7,10,15,18,23-Hexamethyltetracosane is a novel compound. This compound is prepared [1] by hydrogenating 2,7,10,15,18,23-hexamethyltetracosa-1,6,18,23-tetraene-11,13-diyne-10,15-d iol [itself a novel compound] or 2,7,10,15,18,23-hexamethyltetracosa-11,13-diyne-10,15-diol, dehydrating the hydrogenated intermediates, and thence hydrogenating the dehydrated precursors, or [2] by selectively, partially hydrogenating the said 10,15-diol compounds and thence hydrogenolyzing the precursor diols, or [3] by hydrogenolyzing the said 10,15-diol compounds, or [4] by hydrogenolyzing the hydrogenated intermediates of the reaction [1]. The compound, 3,6,11-trimethyl-undeca-6,11-dien-1-yl-3-ol, a starting material intermediate, is also a novel compound.
