Abstract

The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of 2-substituted 4-hydroxy-4-methyltetrahydropyranols by reacting 3-methylbut-3-en-1-ol (isoprenol) with the corresponding aldehydes in the presence of a strongly acidic cation exchanger. Specifically, the present invention relates to a corresponding process for the preparation of 2-isobutyl-4-hydroxy-4-methyltetrahydropyran by reacting isoprenol with isovaleraldehyde.
