Reactions of diethylzinc and phenols (phenol, 2-ethylphenol, 2-chlorophenol, 3-ethylphenol, 3-chlorophenol, 4-ethylphenol and 4-chlorophenol) have been carried out in tetrahydrofuran and 1,4-dioxane as solvents.Monomeric ethylzinc phenoxide has been found to be a product of the diethylzinc and phenol (1:1) reaction in 1,4-dioxane solution.Kinetic studies on the ethylzinc phenoxides and phenols reaction in tetrahydrofuran solution established the rate constants and the SEi mechanism of the reaction.
