Abstract
Selective aromatisation of cyclohexenone was achieved via abstraction of an α-proton of 2-cyclohexenone by LDA followed by treatment with phenylselenyl chloride wich gave the corresponding phenol upon oxidation. This new methodology was applied in the conversion of 19-Nortestosterone to β-Estradiol.
