Versuchsvorschrift
432.62 g of 3-(p-tert.amyl -phenyl)-2-methyl-acrolein are dissolved in 2500 ml of methanol and treated portionwise while cooling with ice with 38 g of sodium borohydride. Subsequently, the mixture is stirred at room temperature for 2.5 hours, poured into 2500 ml of ice-cold 2-N hydrochloric acid and exhaustively extracted with hexane. The combined hexane extracts are washed neutral with water, dried over sodium sulphate and evaporated. Vacuum distillation yields pure 3-(p-tert.amyl-phenyl)-2-methyl-allyl alcohol of boiling point 128°-133° C./0.04 Torr.
