Reaction Steps

2-Methylene pentanal (302 g) and dicyclopentadiene (244 g) were loaded into a 2-L autoclave. The autoclave was sealed and heated to 170° C. The reaction was monitored by Gas Chromatography (“GC”) analysis, which showed the completion after 3 hours. The reaction was cooled to room temperature. The crude product was purified by distillation to yield 2-propylbicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-ene-2-carbaldehyde (136 g).
