Reaction Steps
is a known synthetic perfume obtainable from 2-methyl pentanal 23 (cf. following scheme). The educt 23 is reacted with 2 equivalents of formaldehyde in a crossed Canizzaro reaction to form 2-methyl-2-propylpropane-1,3-diol 24. The diol 24 may then be acetalized with 2-methylpentanal 23 to form Troënan® 22.
