Acetic Acid → Perilla alcohol
Participants
| Role | Name | HCID | Charge |
|---|---|---|---|
| Reactant | Acetic Acid | HCID 176 | — |
| Reactant | Beta-Pinene | HCID 14896 | — |
| Product | Perilla alcohol | HCID 369312 | 40% |
Reaction Steps
The solvent system must be polar. If the non-polar beta-pinene is used in excess as the solvent, the reaction products are only polymeric substances. For reasons not apparent, if the solvent is glacial acetic acid alone, a completely polar solvent system, perillyl alcohol is obtained in only about a 40% yield.
