ChemInform Abstract
Ketals derived from α,β-unsaturated ketones undergo ionic Diels-Alder reaction with simple dienes in concentrated etheral LiClO4- solutions. Surprisingly, the ketal (XI) undergoes a facile cycloaddition under the same conditions, whereas its parent ketone does not give any cycloadduct in the etheral LiClO4-solution.
