Procedure
To a mixture of 3-phenylpropionic acid (15.0 g) and isopropanol (6.61 g) in pyridine (30 ml) perchloric acid (0.150 g) and DCC (24.8 g) are added. After stirring at room temperature for 24 h acetic acid (10 ml) is added, and the reaction mixture is worked-up as described in Example 1 to give a 94% yield of isopropyl 3-phenylpropionate (b. p., see Example 2).
