Reaction Steps
Prod.: (many methods) e.g. from Myrcene, via Myrcene dihydrochloride to Dichloro di-methyloctene. This is converted to Chloro di-hydrogeranyl acetate (and-neryl acetate) with Sodium Acetate in Benzene in presence of Triethylamine. The acetates are saponified with Calcium hydroxide to yield Hydroxycitronellol, from which the aldehyde is prepared by oxidation.
