摘要

ARYLOXYALDEHYDES AND THEIR MANUFACTURE The invention concerns a novel process for the manufacture of various aryloxyaliphatic aldehydes and related arylthio analogues, which are useful as chemical intermediates. The process involves reacting a dihalogenohydroxyalkane of the formula: HO.C(R2)2.CHX2 wherein R2 is alkyl and X is chloro or bromo with a phenol or thiophenol in the presence of base and is applicable to large scale use. 34972
