4,4-Dimethyl-2-pentanone

The same reaction that gave 2 4 4 trimethyl 2 pentene also yielded an isomeric alkene This second alkene produced formaldehyde and 4 4 dimethyl 2 pentanone on ozonolysis Identify this alkene... 

Compare electrostatic potential maps of enolates derived from 2-butanone, 4,4-dimethyl-2-pentanone, 4,4,4-trifluoro-2-butanone and l-phenyl-2-propanone with those of acetone. Which substituents cause significant changes in the electronic structure of these enolates and what are the nature of these changes Justify your answers by making drawings of any important resonance contributors. 

C—H bond 174-280,28i por comparison, only trace amounts of cyclopentane resulted from the CuS04-catalyzed decomposition of 1 -diazo-2-octanone or l-diazo-4,4-dimethyl-2-pentanone 277). It is obvious that the use of Rh2(OAc)4 considerably extends the scope of transition-metal catalyzed intramolecular C/H insertion, as it allows for the first time, efficient cyelization of ketocarbenoids derived from freely rotating, acyclic diazoketones. This cyelization reaction can also be highly diastereo-selective, as the exclusive formation of a m is-2,3-disubstituted cyclopentane carboxylate from 307 shows281 a). The stereoselection has been rationalized by... 

Isomerization of 2,2,4,4-tetramethyloxetane on platinum, palladium and rhodium catalysts at 100 °C to 4,4-dimethyl-2-pentanone has been observed (equation 69). A mechanism involving noble metal cleavage of C—O and a 1,3-methyl shift has been proposed (79CC139). 

The longest continuous chain has five carbons, and the carbonyl carbon is C-2. Thus, methyl 2,2-dimethylpropyl ketone may also be named 4,4-dimethyl-2-pentanone.
