Obtained by heating a mixture of 4-cyanophenyl acetate and aluminium chloride at 180–185° for 2 h (58%). | [Synthesis]
The general procedure for the synthesis of 2-acetyl-p-cyanophenol from 4-cyanophenyl acetate by Fries rearrangement reaction was as follows: phenyl acetate was heated and reacted with aluminum chloride for 3 h at 180-185 °C for Fries rearrangement. After completion of the reaction, the target product 2-acetyl-p-cyanophenol was isolated in 45% yield. | [References]
