ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a process for producing alkylcyclopentanone derivatives of formula (1) by reacting alkyl cyclopentanone derivatives of formula (2) and alkyl halides of formula (3) in an organic solvent in the presence of molecular sieves and an alkaline metal hydroxide: ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl group; R.sup.2 is hydrogen atom or C.sub.1 -C.sub.5 alkyl group; R.sup.3 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.5 alkyl group; Y is halogen atom, C.sub.1 -C.sub.5 alkyl group, C.sub.1 -C.sub.5 haloalkyl group, phenyl group, cyano group or nitro group; n is an integer from 0 to 5; when n is 2 or greater, Y's may be identical or different; R.sup.3 in formula (3) is the same as R.sup.3 in formula (1); and a process for preparing alkylcyclopentanone derivatives of formula (5) by reacting cyclopentanone derivatives of formula (4) and alkyl halides of formula (6) in an organic solvent in the presence of molecular sieves and an alkaline metal hydroxide: ##STR2## wherein R.sup.1 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl group; R.sup.4 is hydrogen atom or C.sub.1 -C.sub.5 alkyl group; R.sup.5 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.5 alkyl group; R.sup.k is either R.sup.4 or R.sup.5 ; Y is halogen atom, C.sub.1 -C.sub.5 alkyl group, C.sub.1 -C.sub.5 haloalkyl group, phenyl group, cyano group or nitro group; n is an integer from 0 to 5; when n is 2 or greater, Y's may be identical or different.
