Notes:
The ethylaluminium dichloride induced Friedel-Crafts acylation of unsaturated carboxylic acids, for example 10-undecenoic acid (1a) and oleic acid (5a), and of the respective alcohols 1b and 5b with acyl chlorides and cyclic acyl anhydrides gave the corresponding long-chain β,γ-unsaturated ketones 3, 6/7, 11 and 13/14 with ω-carboxy and ω-hydroxy functions, respectively. The intramolecular cyclization of petroselinic acid chloride (17) yielded (E)-2-dodecylidenecyclohexanone (18). Catalytic hydrogenation gave the respective saturated ketones 4, 8/9, 12, 15/16 and 19.
