great find Trypstar !
send this good pdf over to rhodium !
you find his present email-address at the end of his page:
../rhodium /index.h
this is good new material for a MMDA-2 section on
rhodium's page, that i suggested some days ago in Post 324781 (3base: "Re: does it give a % of the oil", Chemicals & Equipment).
> As it says, it describes the synthesis of carpacin
(6-methoxy-3,4-methylenedioxy-1-allylben
(3,4-methylenedioxyphenol).
a little error-correction:
carpacin is a propenylbenzene, that is also an excellent
precursor. here are some other possible names:
carpacin
= 1,2-methylenedioxy-5-methoxy-4-trans-propenylbenzene
= 3,4-MD-6-MeO-(E)-propenylbenzene
= 6-methoxy-trans-isosafrole
= 6-MeO-(E)-isosafrole
according to shulgin, the allyl isomer is called asaricin, see:

Oops, sorry .. I should've paid attention when copying and pasting it from an old Hive post.
But the allyl-isomer (asaricin) is actually also produced, next to the carpacin.
