Abstract
Dihydromyrcene is reacted with a carboxylic acid, eg acetic acid, to produce an ester which is then reacted with an alcohol in a transesterification reaction to produce (dihydro)myrcenol and another ester. The preferred alcohol is 4-tertiarybutylcyclohexanol. Myrcenol can be produced in a similar way.
