Procedure

10 g (6.5 mmol) of vanillin and 9.3 g (6.5 mmol) of 2-nonanone were dissolved by stirring in 30 ml of hexane and 20 ml of diethyl ether. Moreover, after adding 3.9 g of acetic acid, 4.6 ml (6.5 mmol) of piperidine was added followed by stirring for 6 hours. Following completion of the reaction, unreacted vanillin was removed with an aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution followed by extraction with diethyl ether. After drying with anhydrous magnesium sulfate, the solvent was distilled off to obtain 20.2 g of crude product. The crude product was purified by column chromatography (SiO2/CHCl3) to obtain (E)-1-(4′-hydroxy-3′-methoxyphenyl)dec-1-en-3-one (17.94 g, yield: 90%).
