Versuchsvorschrift
A mixture of 2,3,6-trimethylphenol (5 g, 0.036 mol) and hexamethylenetetramine (2.06 g, 0.0147 mol) in acetic acid (20 ml) was stirred at 115° C. for 2 hrs. The solvent (10 ml) was distilled and 20% (v/v) H2SO4 (20 ml) was added, and then the mixture was stirred at 115° C. for 20 min. The mixture was then poured on ice cold water (50 ml) and the separated solid was filtered, washed well with cold water (25 ml) and suck-dried. The wet cake was dried at 90° C. for 2 hrs under vacuum to yield 2,3,5-trimethyl-4-hydroxy-benzaldehyde (4.5 g, 75%; Table 1, no. 12).
