Reaction Steps

A two-phase reaction mixture containing 2-cyclopentenyl acetate (0.30 g, 2.4 millimols), 2-cyclohexenol (0.50 g, 5.1 millimols), tetrabutylammonium hydrogen sulfate (0.020 g, 0.06 millimols), and water (0.25 g, 13.9 millimols) was heated at 40° C. with vigorous stirring for four hours. Acetone was then added to give a one-phase system for analytical purposes, and the solution was analyzed by gas chromatography using an Apiezon column programmed from 60° to 220° C. The following relative peak areas were observed for the cyclic components:
