[ 1 ] - Phase transfer catalyzed reaction of disodium salt of 1,3-dihydroxybenzene with propargyl bromide in solid-liquid biphasic condition

The present work describes, the reaction between disodium salt of 1,3-dihydroxybenzene (in situ formation) and propargyl bromide was carried out in a solid-liquid biphasic phase transfer catalytic system at 50°C. Higher selectivity of the bis-derivative (1,3-bis(prop-2-ynyloxy)benzene) was obtained under solid-liquid PTC condion. The conversion of propargyl bromide of more than 99% was achieved...

[ 2 ] - Synthesis of 1-(isopentyloxy)-4-nitrobenzene under ultrasound assisted liquid-liquid phase-transfer catalysis

In this paper, we report the reaction of isoamyl alcohol and 1-chloro-4-nitrobenzene was carried out in a batch reactor under aqueous-organic biphasic conditions using the techniques like phase transfer catalysis and ultrasound irradiation. Tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB) was employed as the phase transfer catalyst. The reaction is greatly enhanced by adding a small quantity of phase-transfer...

[ 3 ] - Phase-transfer catalysis for synthesis of ethyl 2-(4-nitrophenoxy)acetate under sonication- kinetic aspects

Ultrasound assisted phase-transfer catalyzed preparation of ethyl 2-(4-nitrophenoxy)acetate from the corresponding p-nitrophenol and ethyl 2-bromoacetate using the mild solid base, anhydrous potassium carbonate, under very mild conditions is reported. The solid-liquid reactions were performed in a batch reactor equipped with reflux condenser, and ultrasonic irradiations were introduced using an...
