| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The conversion of cyclohexanone and substituted cyclohexanones to alkyl aryl ethers using a PdC-ethylene system is discussed, where ethylene functions as a hydrogen acceptor. The obtained ethers are easily transformed into the corresponding phenols by treatment with BBr3. Direct conversion of cyclohexenone to phenol in the presence of a catalytic amount of PdC under an ethylene atmosphere.
The conversion of substituted 1,3-cyclohexanediones to the alkyl ethers of resorcinol using a PdC-ethylene system is reported. In these reactions, ethylene works as a hydrogen acceptor. The efficient synthesis of resveratrol was achieved using this protocol as a key step. In addition, the direct formation of substituted resorcinols was carried out by adding K2CO3 into the reaction media.
