β-Cyclocitral 1b condenses with benzaldehyde in the presence of base catalysts giving the 2-benzopyrans 4, 5 and 6, and in the presence of acid catalysts giving exclusively the aldehyde 7.The cyclocitrals 1a and 1b are both isomerized by strong base anion exchange resin, but their aldehyde-protected derivatives 2 and 3 are not.Some tests used to characterize the aldehydes and their condensation products are described.
