Ethyl orsellinate Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

Add 2, 4-dihydroxy-3, 5-dibromo-6-methylbenzoic acid ethyl ester to sodium hydroxide solution, and carry out hydrogenolysis in the presence of palladium/polyvinyl alcohol catalyst. After the reaction, sodium chloride was added to precipitate the catalyst, filtered, the filtrate was acidified and then extracted with chloroform, and the extract was recovered to obtain ethyl 2, 4-dihydroxy-6-methylbenzoate.

Uses

Synthesis of intermediates by machine.

Benzoic acid, 2,4-dihydroxy-6-methyl-, ethyl ester: ACTIVE
