Home Chemistry Organic Building Blocks Esters Methyl 2-(4-Hydroxyphenyl)Acetate
These compounds have the same murcko framework: benzene,and at least 2 kinds of functional groups( —CH2COOCH3,—OH).
Ester Hydrolysis: Methyl 2-phenylacetate can undergo hydrolysis in the presence of an acid or base to form the corresponding 【carboxylic acid|https://www.ambeed.com/carboxylic-acids.html】 (2-phenylacetic acid) and methanol. The reaction mechanism differs depending on whether acid or base is used.
Acid-Catalyzed Hydrolysis: CH3-CO-CH2-C6H5 + H2O (in the presence of acid) → CH3-COOH + C6H5OH
Base-Catalyzed Hydrolysis: CH3-CO-CH2-C6H5 + OH- (in the presence of base) → CH3-COO- + CH2-C6H5OH CH3-COO- + H2O → CH3-COOH
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.
