Liang, Yu-Feng published the artcileMetal-Free I2-Catalyzed Highly Selective Dehydrogenative Coupling of Alcohols and Cyclohexenones, Name: 4-(Phenoxymethyl)benzoic acid, the publication is Chinese Journal of Chemistry (2018), 36(3), 233-240, database is CAplus.
The I2 catalyzed highly selective oxidative condensation of cyclohexenones and alcs. for the synthesis of aryl alkyl ethers was described. DMSO was employed as the mild terminal oxidant. This novel methodol. offered a metal-free reaction condition, operational simplicity and broad substrate scope to afford valuable products from inexpensive reagents. Various meta-substituted aromatic ethers which were hardly synthesized from the reported methods requiring meta-substituted phenols were efficiently prepared by the present protocol.
Chinese Journal of Chemistry published new progress about 31719-76-3. 31719-76-3 belongs to catalysis-chemistry, auxiliary class Carboxylic acid,Benzene,Ether, name is 4-(Phenoxymethyl)benzoic acid, and the molecular formula is C14H12O3, Name: 4-(Phenoxymethyl)benzoic acid.
