G. Oberhausen) in 200 ml toluene and heated to boiling with hater separation until the equimolar amount of water separates (about 2 hours). After cooling it was washed with water and then with 10% sodium bicarbonate solution. The solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure. The remaining end-product after distillation over a 15 cm Vigreux column gave 150 g (95%) isooctanoic acid methylester as an easily mobile liquid with a fruity smell.
