• Description

  It is usually used as the intermediate in organic synthesis and pharmaceutical industry. Specifically, this chemical can react with o-xylene in the presence of HAuCl4 or AuCl3 at 80 ℃ to generate the corresponding benzylated product.¹ Moreover, the acetylation of 4-chlorobenzyl alcohol in presence of catalytic amounts of Ce(OTf)4 has been performed in acetic acid to produce the desired esters in the excellent yields.² In addition, this chemical may function as the raw material to produce its corresponding carboxylic acids and ketones in good yields through the oxidation reaction by using hydrogen peroxide and cobalt(Ⅱ) complex.³ Besides, the formylation and acetylation of 4-chlorobenzyl alcohol may be carried out in the presence of Silphos [PCl3?n(SiO2)n] in ethyl formate and ethyl acetate.⁴ ;
