実験手順
15.2 g of pulegone are treated with 0.5 ml of triethylamine and cooled to ca 0° by means of an ice-common salt mixture. With stirring, methyl mercaptan in excess is condensed into the mixture and, after condensation of 200% of the calculated amount, the mixture is transferred into an autoclave. After standing overnight at room temperature, the reaction mixture is heated to 50° and, after cooling of the autoclave, the reaction product immediately distilled in vacuum. 9.8 g of 8-methylthio-p-menthan-3-one are obtained as a clear liquid with pleasant odour reminiscent of peppermint, geranium and caraway, boiling point 72°-73°/0.15 mm Hg, nD20 1.4982. The yield amounts to 73% of the theory based on reacted pulegone. The two stereoisomeric compounds 8-methylthio-cis-p-menthan-3-one and 8-methylthio-trans-p-menthan-3-one obtained can be separated gas-chromatographically.
