Abstract

Abstract-Catalytic alkylation of phenols with cyclohexanol gives o- and p-cyclohexylphenols as the major products. The effect of temperature, catalyst nature, and reactant concentration on the reaction outcome was studied. ... Cyclohexylation of aromatic hydrocarbons and their functional derivatives underlies an efficient procedure [1, 2] which was developed by us for the preparation of functionalized biphenyls and terphenyls as initial compounds and intermediate ...
