Product Information

• Name: 5'-Hydroxy-2'-methoxyacetophenone
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 5'-Hydroxy-2'-methoxyacetophenone is a versatile precursor for the synthesis of ruthenium complexes. It is used in the hydroarylation reaction to form aryl ethers from alcohols and olefins. 5'-Hydroxy-2'-methoxyacetophenone has been shown to be an effective antioxidant with greater activity than vitamin C. This compound also releases oxygen, which helps to accelerate the rate of catalytic reactions. The hydroarylation and reductive deprotection of 5'-hydroxy-2'-methoxyacetophenone are regioselective, giving rise to phenols as the only by-products. The skeleton of 5'-hydroxy-2'-methoxyacetophenone is aglyconic, which means that it can be used as a building block or starting material for other organic compounds without any further modifications.
