The transformation of the c ‐acetic‐acid chain of hexamethyl Co α, Co β‐dicyanocobyrinate into an ethyl group (→ 2 ) as well as the synthesis of the pentadecaalkyl‐cobalticorrin 6d from commercial cyanocobalamin are described. On reaction of 2 or 6d with O 2 in the presence of ascorbic acid, migration of the CH 3 group at C(5) to the vicinal position C(6) takes place concomitantly with the introduction of a carbonyl group at C(5).
