N2  - The structure IIIa previously proposed for the &#946;-diketone with an unsaturated side chain, obtained by the action of alkali on the optically active compound of Tigaso oil, is confirmed by the formation of methyl stearyl ketone and resorcinol monomethyl ether in the pyrolysis of the methyl ether (IV). An anomalous lithium aluminium hydride reduction of the methyl ether (IV) and other reactions are discussed. Unsuccessful attempts have been made to synthesize the tribasic acid resulting from sodium hypobromite oxidation of the &#946;-diketone (IIIb).
