ABSTRACT:
A process for preparing cyclooctene-4-ol-1 with a content in excess of 70% by reacting cyclooctadiene-1,5 with formic acid and then saponifying or transesterifying the cyclooctenyl formate with an alcohol of low boiling point.
In the absence of a catalyst, formic acid is reacted with cyclooctadiene-1,5 at 50.degree. to 200.degree. C., preferably 95.degree. to 105.degree. C. The reaction product without further processing is directly distilled, and the formic acid ester so obtained is transesterified with an alcohol of low boiling point into the formate of that alcohol and into cyclooctene-4-ol-1.
