Procedure: 5-Hydroxy hexanoic acid 3 (1 g, 7.69 mmoles) is dissolved in 30 mL of methanol, mixed with a catalytic amount of sulfuric acid and heated until the reaction is completed. Subsequently, the solvent is removed under vacuum and the residue distilled under the vacuum of an oil pump. 870 mg (6.00 mmoles) of methyl-5-hydroxyhexanoate 4 is obtained which represents a yield of 78%. heated until the reaction Subsequently, the solvent is removed under vacuum the residue distilled under the vacuum of an oil pump
