449 g of isoprene, stabilized with 1.4 g of phenothiazine, were added dropwise over the course of 6 hours to a solution of 744 g of guaiacol, 76 g of 85% strength phosphoric acid and 6 ml of water in 1.4 liters of xylene at 110° C. To complete the reaction, stirring of the mixture was continued overnight at 110° C. The acid phase was separated off and extracted by shaking with toluene. The combined organic phases were washed until neutral. Fractional distillation gave 443 g of 3,3-dimethyl-5-hydroxy-6-methoxy-indane, boiling point: 145- 46° C/12 mm Hg, melting point 43.5° - 44.5° C. ##STR35##
