Reaktionsschritte

cis,trans-Muconic acid (103 mg, 0.725 mmol) is dissolved in n-propanol (10 mL) at room temperature and a crystal of iodine (10 mg, 0.04 mmol) is added. The reaction mixture is allowed to stir at room temperature for 24 hours. The precipitate is filtered, washed with acetonitrile and dried under reduced pressure to yield 75 mg of trans,trans-muconic acid, a 73 percent yield.
