Nonanoic Acid → Methyl n-nonanoate
Reaction equation
CC(CCCCCCC)C(O)=O.[C:13]([O:23][CH3:24])(=[O:22])[CH2:14][CH2:15][CH2:16][CH2:17][CH2:18][CH2:19][CH2:20][CH3:21].C(O)(=O)CCCCCCCC>>[C:13]([O:23][CH3:24])(=[O:22])[CH2:14][CH2:15][CH2:16][CH2:17][CH2:18][CH2:19][CH2:20][CH3:21]Participants

Procedure
The foregoing precursors may subsequently be hydrogenated to methyl pelargonate (methyl nonanoate) and pelargonic acid may then be obtained by acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of methyl pelargonate.
