Abstract

Our desire for a substituted styrene in which the substituent groups might enter into chelate ring structures with metals, led to the formulation of a scheme of synthesis for 3-amino-4- hydroxystyrene. The complete objective was not attained since unusual difficulties surround the preparation of a styrene containing both an acidic and a basic group. However, a possible parent compound, p-(3-amino-4-hydroxyphenyl)-ethanol, hereafter designated ...
