methyl cinnamate
« on: March 28, 2010, 10:06:25 PM »
Hello everyone!  ;D
I need to know how you can add an OH to methyl cinnamate in the
double bond. The image can be seen in the position where I need to introduce the hydroxyl. What an amine?
 ??? ???

Thanks!  ;D

Do you still need the double bond? What do you want on the other end of it, if you don't want the double bond? Wouldn't it probably tautomerise to the ketone if you don't?
