Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 7.2 g (0.05 mol) of 5-isopropoxy-2-penten-1-ol, 6.9 g (0.05 mol) of 3,4-methylendioxy-phenol, and 10.3 g (0.05 mol) of dicyclohexyl-carbodiimide is stirred at 105° for 16 hours. After cooling 50 cc of ether are added, the mixture is filtered and the filtrate is evaporated. The residue is chromatographed on silica gel with hexane/ethyl acetate 9:1 and 5-(5-isopropoxy-2-pentenyloxy)-1,3-benzodioxol is obtained as colourless oil which is identical with the product produced in accordance with Example 39.
