Procedure: The dimethyloctyl chloride is then obtained by reacting the myrcene hydrochloride (neryl/geranyl chloride) with sodium acetate and saponifying the acetate with sodium hydroxide to produce nerol/geraniol. This is then hydrogenated to produce dimethyloctanol, which is treated with HCl in the presence of zinc chloride to produce the dimethyloctyl chloride.
