Abstract

On account of the renewed interest and presentday commercial importance of the alkyladipic acidsZ it was considered appropriate to give in this communication an account of the synthesis of a long chain adipic acid, namely, the p-diisobutyladipic acid. For the preparation of this acid (VI) the y-diisobutylcyclohexanol (I), obtained by the catalytic hydrogenation of p-diisobutylphenol@(CY, a, y, y-tetramethy1)-butylphenol),
