Phenols
m-cresol
These compounds have the same murcko framework: benzene,and at least 2 kinds of functional groups( —OH,—CH3).
Fries Rearrangement: Phenol can undergo the Fries rearrangement when treated with a Lewis acid catalyst, leading to the migration of an acyl group within the molecule.
Halogenation: Toluene can undergo halogenation reactions with halogens (such as chlorine or bromine) in the presence of a catalyst or under UV light. The hydrogen atoms on the benzene ring can be replaced by halogen atoms, resulting in the formation of mono-, di-, or polyhalogenated derivatives of toluene.
