Abstract
4-Hydroxy-3,7-dimethyl-2,6-octadienal (5-Hydroxycitral) (2) was prepared from 3,7-dimethyl-2,6-octatrienal (citral) (1) via bromoaldehyde (4) and acetoxyaldehyde (6). 3,7-Dimethyl-2,4,6-octadienal (7) was also obtained as a byproduct. 4-Hydroxy-3,7-dimethyl-2,6-octadienal (2) showed similar growth inhibition activity to that of 1 against Sarcoma 180.
