The downstream synthesis method of this compound is introduced below.

Example 6: (E/Z)-2-(2-methylcvclohexylidene)-2-o-tolylacetonitrile To the stirred mixture of 2-methylcyclohexanone (12.3 g, 0.11 mol) and o-methyl benzyl cyanide (13.1 g, 0.10 mol) is added sodium methoxide (30% in MeOH, 18.5 ml, 0.10 mol) during 15 min and the resulting brown mixture is heated under stirring to 600C (oilbath) for 3 h and 8O0C for further 10 h. The mixture is diluted with toluene, the organic layer washed with brine/H2O 1 :1 and dried over MgSO4. The solvent is removed under reduced pressure and the residue distilled over a short-path apparatus at 0.05 mbar. The fraction distilling at 96-1240C is collected (5.4 g) and further purified by EPO flash chromatography on SiO2, eluting with cyclohexane/methyl-t-butyl ether 9:1. After removal of the solvent, the residue is bulb-to-bulb distilled at 175C (0.05 mbar) to yield 2.19 g (9%) of colourless oil, which consists of E/Z-isomers (not attributed) in a 54:46 ratio (GC). The NMR-spectra indicates also the presence of distinguishable rotamers (atropisomers) at room temperature.Odour description: balsamic, sweet, cinnamic, plum.13C-NMR (100 MHz, CDCI3) (E/Z-mixture and atropisomers at room temperature): 166.6, 166.4, 166.3 (s), 136.7, 136.6 (s), 133.1 , 133.0 (s), 130.4, 130.3, 130.3 (d), 130.0, 129.8, 129.6, 129.3 (d), 128.6, 128.5 (d), 126.1 , 126.0 (d), 117.7, 117.7, 117.6, 117.5 (s), 106.2, 106.1 , 105.9 (s), 36.2, 36.1 (d), 33.2, 33.1 (t), 32.7, 32.3 (d), 29.8, 29.8 (t), 28.3, 28.2 (t), 27.4 (t), 26.8, 26.2 (t), 20.0, 20.0, 19.9, 19.9 (t), 19.5, 19.5 (q), 19.2 (q), 18.6, 18.5 (q), 18.1, 17.4 (q).MS (main isomer): 25 (100, [M+]), 210 (86), 196 (26), 182 (40), 168 (57), 154 (70).
