Heterogeneous Gasphase Eliminations with the System Magnesium Oxide/Potassium After evaporation of potassium and condensation on a magnesium oxide surface a highly reactive blue reagent is formed which is active in dehydrogenation reactions. 1,4‐Cyclo‐hexadiene ( 1 ) and 1,3‐cyclohexadiene ( 2 ) can effectively be converted into benzene at room temperature while dehydrogenation of cyclohexene 3 needs temperatures higher than 200°C. The reaction mechanism is discussed. Debrominations with MgO/K can likewise be carried out under rather mild conditions.
