Reaction Steps

2,2-Dimethyl octanoic acid is prepared by dissolving 2,2-dimethyl-3-octenoic acid (0.20 g, 1.1 mmol) in absolute ethanol blanketed with N2 and 10% palladium on carbon which is then hydrogenated for 6 hours. The catalyst is removed by filtration and the filtrate concentrated under vacuum to give 2,2-dimethyl octanoic acid.
