Thank you so much for the easy and detailed synth description!
How about the hydrogen peroxide, could that be substituted? It's a really controlled chemical nowadays, and a bitch to synthesize yourself. Its mainly there as a catalyst in the reaction between the glacial acetic acid and the 3-methyl-4-phenyl-3-buten-2-one, right? What could be a good substitute?

I got 37.28 grams of acetoxyphenylpropene from 52.77 grams of MPB last time with peracetic acid, that I made from 30% H2O2 and glacial acetic acid, and 0.1 moles of H2SO4. That peracetic acid stood in my closet for 3 days before it was used.
But just 13.04 g of P2P from that 37.28 g of acetoxy via base hydrogenation (no heating, just stirring and dropping it in 2,5 hours).
