    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain the subject compound in high yield by reacting a trimethylcyclohexenedione with an acylating agent in the presence of a protonic acid. SOLUTION: 3,3,5-Trimethylcyclohex-2-ene-1,4-dione is reacted with an acylating agent in the presence of a protonic acid and the formed trimethylhydroquinone ester is successively saponified to give the objective compound. A trifluoromethanesulfonic acid, chlorosulfonic acid, polyphosphoric acid, fuming sulfuric acid or a mixture of these acids is used as the protonic acid. The amount of the acylating agent is 2-4mol based on 1mol of 3,5,5- trimethylcyclohex-2-ene-1,4-dione and that of the acid is 0.1-50wt.%. The saponification is carried out in the presence of a phase mediation agent (e.g. n-butanol). The amount of the acid used is reduced and the saponification can also be extremely readily carried out.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To industrially obtain an α-tocopherol ester useful as a feed additive, etc., while saving raw materials and reducing the number of processes by reacting a diacetylated substituted hydroquinone with a specific compound in the presence of a catalytic action compound. SOLUTION: This method for producing an α-tocopherol ester of formula I (R1 is a 1-20C alkyl; R3 -R5 are each H or a 1-3C alkyl) comprises reacting (A) a hydroquinone mono- or di-ester of formula II (R2 is a 1-20C alkyl) with (B) an allyl alcohol derivative of formula III [(n) is 0-5; L is a hydroxyl group, a halogen group, an acetoxy group or the like] or (C) an allyl alcohol of formula IV in the presence of (D) a zinc halide (for example, zinc dichloride) and (E) a proton-releasing acid (preferably hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid, trifluoromethanesulfonic acid, etc.), at a temperature of 25-100 deg.C.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain the subject compound useful as a raw material for medicines with slight formation of by-products in excellent space and time yield and in a high conversion ratio, by taking out a mixture containing a specific amount of β-isophorone from a reaction solution during isomerization of α-isophorone by distillation. SOLUTION: While (A) 3,5,5-trimethylcyclohexa-2-en-1-one is isomerized by (B) a catalyst [e.g. a (mixed) oxide of the groups IIa and VIII of the periodic table, to be concrete, Ca or Mg(mixed) oxide or Co or Ni (mixed) oxide], a mixture containing 0.5-75wt.%, preferably 0.5-40wt.% of 3,5,5- trimethylcyclohexa-3-en-I-one (β-isophorone) is taken out by distillation and β-isophorone is isolated by vacuum distillation from the mixture.
