Envirocat EPIC(R) as a novel catalyst for acylation of anisole using benzoic acids

Article abstract of DOI:10.1080/00397919908086417

Friedel-Crafts acylation of anisole has been carried out using Envirocat EPIC(R) as a novel heterogenous catalyst and benzoic acids under reflux condition. This method is suitable for regioselective acylation of activated aromatics with benzoic acids having electron-donating substituents.
