Procedure
100 parts of 3-methyl-2-buten-1-ol and 50 parts of 3,3-dimethylacrolein are heated for ninety minutes at 200° C and a pressure of 40 atmospheres in a rocking autoclave having a capacity of 250 parts by volume. The reaction product is worked up by distillation. 12.5 parts of citral is obtained having a boiling pont of 104° C at 12 mm. The yield (based on 3,3-dimethylacrolein) is 53% of theory at a conversion of 26%.
