Participants

Reaction Steps

1.7 g (0.03 mol) of pulverised potassium hydroxide are added to a solution of 4.1 g (0.03 mol) of 3,4-methylendioxy-phenol and 6.2 g (0.035 mol) of 1-chloro-5-isopropoxy-3-methyl-2-pentene in 100 cc of 1,2-dimethoxyethane. The mixture is stirred at 60° for a period of 18 hours, is subsequently filtered and evaporated at reduced pressure.
