Palladium(0)-catalyzed reaction of isoprene with water was enhanced by the presence of carbon dioxide and a base to give dimethyloctadienols.The same catalyst was found to dehydrate the dimethyloctadienols to afford the corresponding dimethyloctatrienes.The effect of acidity of water on the isoprene-water reaction was also studied.
