Triphenylmethanol Use and Manufacturing

Uses

Triphenylmethanol is prepared by reacting benzene with carbon tetrachloride in the presence of aluminum chloride, followed by acidification and hydrolysis. Or it can be prepared by reacting phenylmagnesium bromide Grignard reagent with methyl benzoate. Triphenylmethanol can be used in organic synthesis and can synthesize the two-electron reduction product of pyrylogen.
