Geranyl anthranilate

Geranyl anthranilate, which is difficult of access by other methods, can be obtained as follows One equivalent each of methyl anthranilate and geraniol are heated at 100-120° with 0.05 equivalent of sodium, aluminum, or magnesium alkoxide. Methyl alcohol distils off slowly the reaction can be accelerated by working in a vacuum. When distillation ceases,...

Analysis agreed with the formula CgH g or CgH, . It is probably octy-lene. Pinene appears to be present in traces, as well as camphene, phellandrene, and y-terpinene. The bulk of the oil, however, consists of d-limonene which is present to the extent of about 90 per cent. Methyl-heptenone, octyl aldehyde, nonyl aldehyde, citronellal, terpineol, linalyl acetate, geranyl acetate, bisabolene, cadinene and methyl anthranilate have all been found present in traces.
