2-Chloro-6-methylphenol Use and Manufacturing

General procedure: o-Cresol (melted) or m-cresol (5.41 g, 50.0 mmol), AlCl3 (0.25 g) and the catalyst (100 mg)were added to a dried 50 ml round-bottomed flask. Sulfuryl chloride (4.66 ml, 57.7 mmol) wasthen added slowly over 2 h via a pressure-equalizing dropping funnel. The reaction mixture wasstirred for 2 h before being quenched with water (20 ml). The reaction mixture was worked up, and the crude products were weighed until constant mass and then analyzed by quantitative GC.Freshly distilled sulfuryl chloride (4.66 mL, 57.7 mmol) was added slowly over 2 h to a mixture of o-cresol or m-cresol (5.41 g, 50 mmol), AlCl
