26. One of the two minor products is clearly the geometric isomer of 11. Heating a mixture of the two minor products in dilute HCl causes the appearance of 11 at the expense of this component as determined by following the reaction with TLC and NMR analysis. The other minor product has the NMR characteristics of the isomer of 10 with a trans ring fusion.
27. The loss of regioselectivity with 2,4-pentanedione is not unexpected since the hydrogen-bonded enol tautomer with its symmetrically delocalized π-system represents essentially a nonpolarized alkene.
