Reaktionsschritte

The resulting m-phenoxybenzyl bromide can be easily esterified in a solvent such as acetic acid to produce m-phenoxybenzyl acetate. The product can be easily converted into m-phenoxybenzyl alcohol by a hydrolysis with a base in a solvent such as methanol. In accordance with the aforementioned treatment, m-phenoxybenzylidene dibromide is converted into m-phenoxybenzaldehyde. Thus, m-phenoxybenzyl acetate and m-phenoxybenzaldehyde are produced by the treatment of the mixture of m-phenoxybenzyl bromide and m-phenoxybenzylidene dibromide, m-phenoxybenzyl acetate and m-phenoxybenzaldehyde can be separated from the mixture by a distillation under a reduced pressure.
