To a mixture of 52 g 2-propylpentanol and 86 g of p-toluenesulfonic acid in 175 ml of chloroform was added at 0°-3° C. and under N2 -atmosphere 48 g of pyridine. The mixture was kept at 0° C. for 30 minutes and at room temperature for 19 hrs. After cooling the reaction mixture, 3M HCl (300 ml) was added. The organic phase was separated and washed with water and brine. Drying with Na2SO4 and evaporation gives 110 g of 2-propylpentyl tosylate.
