Abstract
Process for the production of dimedone from isophorone. The isophorone is converted in the presence of a solvent with ozone into an ozone-addition product. An alcohol corresponding to the ester radical is added at the latest after the formation of the ozone-addition product for the formation of the intermediate product, 3,3-dimethyl-5-oxo-hexanoic acid ester. The ozone addition product is heated in the presence of acids to a temperature of 20.degree. to 150.degree. C. The 3,3-dimethyl-5-oxo-hexanoic acid ester is isolated thereby. The ester is then converted in a further step into dimedone by treatment of the ester with an alkali alcoholate in an anhydrous milieu.
