Methyl 2-hexenoate Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

was repeated except that as acetylenically unsaturated compound 10 ml 1-pentyne was used. The reaction time was 1 hour. A pentyne consumption rate of 300 turnovers per hour per mol Pt was calculated. The products consisted of 65percent of linear methyl 2-hexenoate and 35percent of 2-methyloxy carbonyl 1-pentene.
