[Related Art] Methyl jasmonate is widely harmonized with other fragrances, and is added to many flowery base fragrances. And there are many reports about the manufacturing method. However, in recent studies on the aroma of methyl jasmonate, there is an equilibrium between methyl jasmonate and the epi-form of methyl jasmonate, and the unstable epi-form of methyl jasmonate is more stable than the stable form of methyl jasmonate. Also 40
It turns out that the aroma is 0 times stronger (TEAcree et.al., J. Ag
ric. Food Chem., 33, 425-427, 1985), and studies on the synthesis of epi-forms of methyl jasmonate have been actively conducted.

On the other hand, a method for synthesizing methyl jasmonate has been known for a long time, and a method for selectively synthesizing epi-forms of methyl jasmonate has recently been studied (Cottada et al., The 30th Symposium on Flavors / Terpenes and Essential Oil Chemistry, 101,1986). However, these selective synthesis methods were not industrially applicable due to the multi-step and low yield. Further, the epi-form of methyl jasmonate was subjected to distillation fractionation of a mixture of methyl jasmonate and the epi-form of methyl jasmonate to obtain 20 epi-forms of methyl jasmonate.
It is known to obtain a compound containing methyl jasmonate with an epi-content of about 8% by alkali or acid treatment. However, even in these production methods, steps such as distillation have to be taken, which is very complicated.
