Reaction Steps
However, it is more desirable to prepare diaryl ethers by the dehydration of phenols. The dehydration was first reported by P. Sabatier and A. Mailhe (Compt. Rend., 151, 1910, 492-494). They passed phenol over a thoria catalyst at 410° C. and atmospheric pressure to obtain diphenyl oxide and dibenzofuran as a byproduct.
