Participants
| Role | Name | HCID | Charge |
|---|---|---|---|
| Reactant | Propionic Acid | HCID 1032 | — |
| Reactant | 3-Methyl-2-butenal | HCID 61020 | — |
| Reactant | Geraniol | HCID 637566 | — |
| Product | (2E,6E)-3,7,11-trimethyldodeca-2,6,10-trienal | HCID 5280598 | 84% |
Reaction Steps
100 parts of geraniol, 30 parts of 3,3-dimethylacrolein and 2.5 parts of propionic acid are heated together at refluxing temperature for four hours while stirring. The product is distilled. 83.5 parts of farnesal is obtained having a boiling point of 120° to 123°C at 0.2 mm. The yield is 84% of theory at a conversion of 63% (based on 3,3-dimethylacrolein).
