Acetic Acid → Perilla alcohol

Beteiligte Stoffe

Reaktionsschritte

The solvent system must be polar. If the non-polar beta-pinene is used in excess as the solvent, the reaction products are only polymeric substances. For reasons not apparent, if the solvent is glacial acetic acid alone, a completely polar solvent system, perillyl alcohol is obtained in only about a 40% yield.
