2-methyl-5-phenylpentan-1-ol

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

Procedure: 1200 g of 2-Methyl-5-phenyl-pentanol (Rosaphen™, supplier: Symrise) combined with 22 g Pd on activated carbon (Pd content: 5 wt. %) were hydrogenated at a hydrogen pressure of 50 bar and at a temperature of 120° C. After 30 hours the reaction was finished. The catalyst was removed and the product distilled. 1170 g (content: 99.6%) of 5-cyclohexyl-2-methyl-pentanol were obtained. The catalyst was removed the product distilled

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

Procedure: 3415 g of 2-Methyl-5-phenyl-pentanol (Rosaphen™, supplier: Symrise) combined with 33 g Ru on activated carbon (Ru content: 5 wt. %) were hydrogenated at a hydrogen pressure of 20 bar and at a temperature of 100° C. After 14-17 hours the reaction was finished. The catalyst was removed and the product distilled. 3437 g (content: 99.9%) of 5-cyclohexyl-2-methyl-pentanol were obtained. Yield: 97% of theoretical. The catalyst was removed the product distilled
