Abstract

Guaiacol is an important chemical intermediate synthesized mainly from o-methoxyaniline. But it required a careful control of the reaction conditions and the yield was very low. Guaiacol was synthesized from catechol and dimethyl sulfate in this paper and the satisfactory result was obtained.
