Two monoterpenols, perillyl alcohol and nerol, have been converted into their,-unsaturated ester derivatives following a modified process of microwave-assisted ortho ester Claisen rearrangement. The yields obtained (90%) are better than those previously obtained. The optimized process needs less reaction time (5min), smaller amount of reagent, and no solvent.
