Informação sobre produto
4,7,7-Trimethyl-3-oxo-bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-1-carboxylic acid (TMC) is a bicyclic carboxylic acid that yields the unsaturated compound 4,7,7-trimethylcyclohexanone when it is hydrolyzed with base. TMC can be synthesized by bromination of 4,7,7-trimethylcyclohexene with NBS and then reacting the brominated product with potassium carbonate in an aqueous solution containing acetic acid. The regioselectivity of this reaction is due to the electron withdrawing effect of the bromine atom on the alpha carbon atom.
