p-Toluenesulfonic acid → HCID 19047524, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 1,1-di(3-furyl)propanol (43 g) and 1 g of p-toluenesulfonic acid in 300 ml of toluene was allowed to react at room temperature and the resulting mixture was concentrated in vacuo. The residual red oil was purified by silica gel column chromatography (methylene chloride) and kugelrohr distillation (50°-80° C. at 0.25 mmHg) to afford 4 g of 1,1-di(3-furyl)-1-propene (Formula III: R3 =CH3 ; R4 =H; R5 =R6 =3-furyl) as an oil, b.p. 50°-80° C. (0.25 mm).
