2,5-DIMETHOXYBENZYL ALCOHOL Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

clear colorless to light yellow viscous liquid

Uses

2,5-Dimethoxybenzyl Alcohol can be used as a self-indicating standard for the determination of organolithium reagents

Uses

2,5-Dimethoxybenzyl alcohol was used as starting reagent in the synthesis of [(S)S]-3,6-dimethoxy-2-(p-tolylsulfinyl)-benzaldehyde. It was used in the synthesis of daunornycinone. It was also used in the preparation of pillar[n]arenes (n = 5 or 6) via cyclooligomerization reaction with an appropriate Lewis acid catalyst.
