반응 단계

A mixture of 2,6-dimethylphenol (5 mmol) and Ti-superoxide catalyst (125 mg, 20% w/w) in acetic acid (5 ml) was heated with stirring at 50-60° C. under inert atmosphere. To this reaction mixture was added aq. 30% H2O2 (20 mmol) drop wise over 15 min. and heated for 1 h. The catalyst was recovered by simple filtration and 2,6-dimethyl-1,4-benzoquinone formed (97%) was separated by chromatographic purification.
