Reaktionsschritte

One liter capacity four-necked flask equipped with an agitator is charged with 216.4 g of a 35% KOH aqueous solution, and added under agitation with 289.7 g of 52.9% pinane hydroperoxide, while retaining the solution temperature at 20° C. Further 143.1 g of neodecanoic acid chloride is added dropwise over 10 min., while agitating and retaining the solution temperature at 20° C. After agitation of 1 hr., 170 g of cold water is added to the solution, and additional agitation is effected for 5 min. Then, the solution is left still for phase separation. Water phase is removed by separation to leave an oily phase. The oily phase is washed with 300 g of 5% NaOH aqueous solution, subsequently three times with water, and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. Thus, 325.2 g of pinane peroxyneodecanoate solution of a purity of 54.5% is obtained. Yield is 72.8 mol%.
