Synthesis method of 2-bromo-5-methoxyphenol

The invention discloses a synthesis method of 2-bromo-5-methoxyphenol. According to the synthesis method, 3-methoxyphenol is taken as a raw material, firstly, the 3-methoxyphenol reacts with a protection reagent such as tert-butyldimethylsilyl chloride, a

Copper-Catalyzed Acetylation of Electron-Rich Phenols and Anilines

An approach has been developed for the copper-catalyzed acetylation of phenols and anilines with potassium thioacetate as an acetylating reagent. Although only electron-rich phenols and anilines are compatible with this protocol, the reaction can provide moderate to high yields under mild conditions. Compared with other acetylating reagents, the current reagent has certain advantages, such as its low cost, easy availability, stability, insensitivity to water or air, and ease of storage.

The first vinyl acetate mediated organocatalytic transesterification of phenols: A step towards sustainability

The present report outlines our efforts toward a simple yet elegant protocol for O-acylation of a wide variety of phenols. This highly enabling and solventless method relies on vinyl acetate as an innocuous acyl donor and DABCO as an organocatalyst. Operational simplicity, excellent yields, higher and faster conversion rates without excess reagents, a simple workup and essentially no need of columns are some of the salient features of the reported protocol.
