Abstract

The mercuric sulfate-catalyzed acidic hydration of allenylacetylenic alcohols leads to 6-methyl-2,3-dihydro-4-pyranones — products of cyclization of unsaturated β-diketones. In the case of 1-(3,4-pentadien-1-ynyl)cyclohexanol 2-(1-cyclohexenyl)-5-methylfuran is formed in addition to the corresponding dihydropyranone.
