methyl octanoate

Conditions: temp:60.01; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: 500 g 2-propylheptanol, 500 g octanoic acid methyl ester and 50 g Novozym 435 (Novo, Denmark: immobilized lipase—lipase B—from Candida antarctica) were heated under nitrogen for 5 h to 45° C. The temperature was then increased to 60° C. and vacuum (20 mbar) was applied. After 48 h under these conditions, the reaction was terminated. After the enzyme had been filtered off, the product accumulated as a colorless oil. Less than 1% of the educts could be detected by GC. the reaction was terminated After the enzyme had been filtered off

Procedure: Following the method of Example 1, a mixture of 28.5 g. of 6-(p-anilinophenoxy)hexanol, 47.5 g. of methyl octanoate, 0.3 g. of aluminum isopropylate and a small chip of sodium metal (about 0.1 g.) was heated at 160°-170° C. for a total of 9 hours. The reaction mixture was then cooled and recrystallized from 2-propanol to afford the ester, 6-(p-anilinophenoxy)hexyl octanoate as a crystalline solid, m.p. 42°-43° C. a mixture of 28.5 g The reaction mixture was then cooled recrystallized from 2-propanol
