trans-2-Decenoic acid → HCID 25231028, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Trans-2-decenoic acid was dissolved in thionyl chloride (10 ml) and treated in water bath for 3 hours to distill off excess thionyl chloride. Trans-2-decen-1-ol (30 ml) was added to chloride of trans-2-decenoic acid and refluxed in water bath for 2 hours. After cooling, the reaction mixture was added to 1N HCl (80 ml) to be acidic and distributed with EtOAc. The distributed liquid was purified with column chromatography (developing solvent: C6H14-EtOAc (3:1)) after concentration, and trans-2-decenoic acid-trans-2-decenyl ester shown in the following was isolated.
