A process for the production of 3-substituted phenols comprises dehydration of a 3-substituted cyclohexa-3,5-diene-1,2-diol in the presence of an alkanolate and alcohol. A process for the production of 3-substituted phenols of formula (I) comprises dehydration of a 3-substituted cyclohexa-3,5-diene-1,2-diol of formula (II) in the presence of an alkanolate of formula R2OM (III) and alcohol of formula R3OH (IV). R1 = -CH=CH2, -CN or phenyl; R2, R3 = 1-4C alkyl |
