Application
1,4-Dioxaspiro[4.5]decan-8-one can be used:
(1) Used in a study of microwave-assisted reductive amination.
(2) Via a novel aromatization process, this bicyclic frame can be converted into a series of 5-alkoxytryptamine derivatives including serotonin, melatonin and bufotenin.
Purification Methods
Recrystallise it from pet ether. It sublimes slowly on attempted distillation. Also purify it by dissolving it in Et2O and adding pet ether (b 60-80o) until turbid and cooling. [Gardner et al.
