Procedure

5.0 parts of methyl 5-(2,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-5-methylhexanoate, 50 parts of 2-ethyl-hexanol and 0.5 parts of p-toluene sulphonic acid are heated on a steam-bath for 18 hours. The reaction mixture is then diluted with ether, washed with sodium bicarbonate solution, water, and evaporated. The residue, after stripping off excess 2-ethylhexanol on a rotary evaporator at 100° C. and 0.13 mb pressure gives 2-ethylhexyl 5-(2,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-5-methylhexanoate as a viscous amber liquid with the following percentage composition by weight.

Workup

  1. washwashed with sodium bicarbonate solution, water
  2. customevaporated
  3. customon a rotary evaporator at 100° C.
