Abstract: The present invention relates to prostaglandin analogues of the general formula: ##STR1## [wherein A represents a grouping of the formula: ##STR2## X represents trans-vinylene or ethylene and Y represents cis-vinylene or ethylene, R represents a group of the formula --COOR.sup.4, in which R.sup.4 represents hydrogen or straight- or branched-chain alkyl of 1 to 12 carbon atoms, or a group of the formula --CH.sub.2 OR.sup.5, in which R.sup.5 represents hydrogen or alkylcarbonyl of 2 to 5 carbon atoms and R.sup.1, R.sup.2 and R.sup.3, which may be the same or different, each represent hydrogen, straight- or branched-chain alkyl of 1 to 12 carbon atoms, or an aryl group unsubstituted or substituted by one, two or three substituents selected from alkyl, alkoxy, alkylthio, monoalkylamino and dialkylamino groups and halogen atoms, the alkyl groups or moieties of the said groups containing from 1 to 5 carbon atoms in a straight- or branched-chain, with the proviso that at least one of the symbols R.sup.1, R.sup.
Abstract: This invention concerns processes for preparing compounds having the structure ##STR1## wherein each of R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.4, R.sub.5 and R.sub.6 is the same or different and represents hydrogen or a lower alkyl group and wherein each dashed line represents a carbon-carbon single bond or a carbon-carbon double bond. Those compounds in which all three dashed lines represent carbon-carbon double bonds are prepared by reacting phenols and 2-alkylidene-1,4-disubstituted butanes. Selective reduction of these compounds yields those in which at least one dashed line represents a carbon-carbon single bond. Most of the compounds so prepared are new compounds. All are useful as fragrance materials either directly and/or in compositions and/or have useful fixative properties in fragrance compositions.
Abstract: There is provided a process for preparing a compound of the formula ##STR1## wherein X.sup.1, X.sup.2, X.sup.3, and X.sup.4 are independently selected from the group consisting of fluorine, chlorine, bromine and iodine; n is an integer of from 1 to about 100; a, b, c, and d are each integers of from about 0 to about 4; Z.sup.1 and Z.sup.2 are independently selected from the group consisting of halogen and alkyl of from about 1 to about 15 carbon atoms; R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are independently selected from the group consisting of alkylene containing from about 1 to about 12 carbon atoms, alkylenyl containing from about 2 to about 12 carbon atoms, cycloalkylene of the formula ##STR2## wherein R.sup.3, R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 are independently selected from the group consisting of alkylene of from about 1 to about 5 carbon atoms, and cycloalkylenyl of the formula ##STR3## and A is selected from the group consisting of R.sup.3 CR.sup.
Abstract: At least one of a polycyclic phenol, a polycyclic alcohol and a polycyclic ketone is produced under hydrogenation conditions using a nickel oxide/manganese oxide/magnesium oxide catalyst by subjecting at least one of a monocyclic ketone, a monocyclic alcohol and a monocyclic phenol to said conditions and said catalyst.
Abstract: A process for the preparation of 2-(2',2',2',-trihalogenoethyl)-4-halogenocyclobutan-1-ones of the formula ##STR1## in which one of the radicals R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 is methyl and the other is hydrogen or methyl, or R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 together are an alkylene group having 2 to 4 carbon atoms, and X and Y are each chlorine or bromine, comprising reacting a 2,4,4,4-tetrahalogenobutyric acid chloride in the presence of an organic base with an ethylene compound which is disubstituted in 1-position by the radicals R.sub.1 and R.sub.

Abstract: A process for introducing an allyl-positioned carbonyl group into a 2,6,6-trimethylcyclohexene ring which carries a polyenyl radical in the 1-position, by oxidizing the ring with a halogen(V)-oxyacid or a salt of such an acid, and the new oxo compounds obtainable by the said process, which may be used as dyes for foodstuffs or cosmetics. The oxidation is carried out in the presence of a catalyst and of an inert diluent or solvent, in an acid medium. Suitable catalysts are bromine and iodine and the oxides of elements of groups Va, VIa, VIIa and VIII of the periodic table.
