Participants

Reaction Steps

A flask was charged with 23.37 g of optically active 4-benzyloxyphenyl 6-methyloctyl ether, 2.33 g of 10% Pd/C and 230 ml of ethanol, and the mixture was reacted at room temperature until it reacted with a theoretical amount of hydrogen. After completion of the reaction, the catalyst was removed by filtration and the organic solvent was distilled under reduced pressure to obtain a crude product. The crude product was refined to obtain 16.91 g of the intended phenol.
