Adapting the method of synthesis disclosed in D. Johnston, "Preparation of Hydroquinone Monoacetate," Chemistry & Industry 24:1000 (1982) (which is incorporated herein by reference), it is expected that resorcinol may be combined with about an equimolar amount of dioctanoic acid anhydride, and ethyl acetate solvent, a non-nucleophilic solvent, in the presence of 4-dimethylaminopyridine, a catalyst, and a base, such as triethylamine, at room temperature, to produce the desired 1 octanoyloxy-3-hydroxy benzene (resorcinol monooctanoate).
