An important reaction, the oligoaddition of ethylene oxide to the alcoholic hydroxyl group was investigated.The aralkyl alcohols were chosen as base material: benzyl-, β-phenylethyl- and γ-phenylpropyl alcohols.The first members of their homologue ethoxylated series were prepared and used as standards for the determination of the average degree of ethoxylation (IR, UV, refractive indices) and of the molar mass distribution (HPLC).

Homogeneous glycol ether derivatives of phenyl group substituted alcohols (benzyl-, β-phenyl ethyl- and γ-phenyl propyl-) were synthesised by repeated Williamson synthesis starting in two cases from the halogen derivatives of the corresponding alcohols. In the case of β-phenylethanol the first homologue was prepared in the reaction of benzyl group protected ethylene chlorohydrine and β-phenyl-ethyl alcohol. The reaction product was hydrogenolysed (removing the benzyl group by hydrogenolyzis), halogenated and used to the synthesis of higher homologues as starting material.
