experimental part, p. 206 - 209 (2010/02/28)
The reaction of isobutylene hydroxycarbonylation with carbon monoxide and an alcohol (ethanol, 1-menthol) in the presence of the palladium acetylacetonate-triphenylphosphine-p-toluenesulfonic acid catalytic system was investigated. It was shown that the reaction proceeds regioselectively with the formation of linear products (ethyl isovalerate, 1-menthyl isovalerate). The optimum conditions for running the process were found, at which the yield of the main products is 67-79%.
Topical menthol, or a related cooling compound, to induce lubrication

Vaginal Lubrication is an important component of a woman's sexual arousal. The other components are vaginal vasocongestion and the establishment of a clitoral erection. The use of menthol or any related cooling compound, topically applied to the clitoris, evokes a reflex vaginal lubrication, via the clitoral nociceptors, the spinal autonomic nerves, and inducing the reflex release of vasoactivepolypeptides adjacent to the vaginal arterioles. The vaginal lubrication can be an effective therapy for atrophic vaginitis, the most common cause of dyspareunia (pain with intercourse).
