Friedel-Craft's acylation of m-cresol with glutaric anhydride, followed by esterification gives methyl 5-(2-hydroxy-4-methylphenyl)-5-oxopentanoate (4).Methylation of 4 followed by inverse Grignard reaction with methylmagnesium iodide yields an unsaturate

Anbade, Nirmala S.,Desai, Uday V.,Mane, R. B.
, p. 688 - 689 (2007/10/02)
8-Methoxycalamenene (VI), a sesquiterpene of marine origin has been synthesized by cyclodehydration of 2-(2'-methoxy-4'-methylphenyl)-6-methylheptan-2-ol (V) with phosphorous pentoxide.The alcohol (V) is prepared by acylation of m-cresol with isoheptanoyl
