Abstract

Process for the preparation of .delta.-ethylenic carbonyl compounds of the formula (I) by the oxy-Cope rearrangement of a diethylenic alcohol of the formula (II), in the presence of a mercuric salt: in formulae (I) and (II), R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.4, R.sub.5 and R.sub.6, which are identical or different, represent a hydrogen atom or an acyclic hydrocarbon radical and R.sub.3 represents an acyclic hydrocarbon radical, it being understood that R.sub.1 and R.sub.3 can together form a trimethylene radical, or alternatively that R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 can together form an alkylene radical containing 3 to 20 carbon atoms. ##STR1##
