Process for producing optically active 2-norbornanone

An optically active 5-methylenedioxolan-4-one derivative is subjected to Diels-Alder reaction with cyclopentadiene, and the resulting Diels-Alder reaction product is hydrolyzed to convert it into an optically active 2-hydroxynorbornene-2-carboxylic acid, which is then subjected to catalytic hydrogen...

Zusammenfassung:An optically active 5-methylenedioxolan-4-one derivative is subjected to Diels-Alder reaction with cyclopentadiene, and the resulting Diels-Alder reaction product is hydrolyzed to convert it into an optically active 2-hydroxynorbornene-2-carboxylic acid, which is then subjected to catalytic hydrogenation to form an optically active 2-hydroxynorbornane-2-carboxylic acid. The hydroxycarboxylic acid is subjected to oxidative decarboxylation to obtain an optically active 2-norbornanone.
