Procedure
A mixture of 2,3-dimethyl-1,3-butadiene (10 g; 0.122 mol), maleic anhydride (11.9 g; 0.122 mol) and benzene (30 ml) was stirred at room temperature for 10 hours. Precipitates were removed by filtration, and the filtrate was evaporated under reduced pressure to give 4,5-dimethyl-4-cyclohexene-1,2-dicarboxylic anhydride. M.P., 73-74° C.
