Reaction Steps

In an autoclave, 4,6,11-trimethyl-5-oxa-tricyclo[6.2.2.0*4,9*]dodec-6-ene (770 g, obtained as above) and palladium (5%, 7.6 g) on carbon was added to 2-propanol (100 g). The reaction mixture was stirred at a temperature between 70-100° C. under a pressure of 300 psi hydrogen for 6 hours. GC analysis indicated that the reaction was completed. The resulting material was then filtered and distilled under a reduced pressure to provide 4,6,11-trimethyl-5-oxa-tricyclo[6.2.2.0*4,9*]dodecane (720 g), which had a boiling point of 132° C. at a pressure of 0.8 mmHg
