反応手順

Into a 100 ml reaction flask equipped with spin bar, reflux condenser, heating mantle and hot plate with magnetic stirring apparatus, is placed 0.5 grams para-toluenesulfonic acid, 5.0 ml cyclohexane and 6.1 grams (0.05 moles) of 2,3-butanedithiol. Over a period of 30 minutes with stirring is added to the reaction mass 7.6 grams (0.05 moles) of citral having the structure: ##STR23## After the citral is added, the reaction mass is heated to reflux and refluxed (with removal of water of reaction) over a period of 9 hours. At the end of the 9 hour period, the reaction mass is cooled and transferred to a separatory funnel. The reaction mass is then washed with one 50 ml portion of saturated sodium chloride solution and then dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered and distilled on a Microvigreux column yielding the following fractions:
