Synthesis of aromatic alcohols and their alkanoic acid esters

10.1134/S1070427206030141

The research focuses on the synthesis of aromatic alcohols and their alkanoic acid esters, which are important as synthetic fragrance compounds used in the perfume industry. The study investigates the hydroxyalkylation of benzene with ethylene and propylene oxides in a helium atmosphere, using aluminum chloride as a catalyst, to produce 2-phenylethanol and 1-phenyl-2-propanol. The process is optimized to yield 90-95% of the target alcohols under specific conditions. Furthermore, the research explores the esterification of these alcohols with saturated monocarboxylic acids using a heterogeneous catalyst, KU-2-8, resulting in esters with pleasant odors and high yields (82-95%).
