p-Toluenesulfonic acid → HCID 10866703, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

CHA was prepared by the above procedure from cyclohexenyl methanol (100 gram, 0.89 mole), acrylic acid (57.6 grams, 0.8 mole), p-toluenesulfonic acid (4 grams, 21 mmole), MEHQ (2 grams, 5.7 mmole), and toluene (500 ml) in a 1 liter reaction flask. The aqueous washes were performed with 400 ml portions each. The CHA was obtained in an amount of 96.5 grams (73% yield). The CHA was determined to have a boiling point in the range of 68-69° C. at a reduced pressure of 0.35 Torr.
