Quality Control of (3-Methoxy-2-methylphenyl)methanolOn May 4, 2018 ,《α-Ketocarbenium Ions Derived from Orthoquinone-Containing Polycyclic Aromatic Compounds》 appeared in Organic Letters. The author of the article were Urakawa, Kazuki; Kawabata, Yuta; Matsuda, Masaki; Sumimoto, Michinori; Ishikawa, Hayato. The article conveys some information:
α-Ketocarbenium ions derived from synthesized orthoquinone-containing polycyclic aromatic compounds were generated in the presence of Bronsted acids such as sulfuric acid, trifluoromethanesulfonic acid, and fluorosulfonic acid. The prepared α-ketocarbenium ions were stabilized by conjugation of the aromatic moiety. In addition, unique absorption properties of the α-ketocarbenium ions were observed and identified on the basis of the calculated absorption spectra. It was suggested that the zigzag-shaped architecture stabilizes the newly discovered α-ketocarbenium ions derived from orthoquinone-containing polycyclic aromatic compounds The experimental process involved the reaction of (3-Methoxy-2-methylphenyl)methanol(cas: 33797-34-1Quality Control of (3-Methoxy-2-methylphenyl)methanol)
(3-Methoxy-2-methylphenyl)methanol(cas: 33797-34-1) belongs to ethers.Quality Control of (3-Methoxy-2-methylphenyl)methanolAlthough ethers resist hydrolysis, they are cleaved by hydrobromic acid and hydroiodic acid. Hydrogen chloride cleaves ethers only slowly.
