Abstract
Selective mono- and bis-oxidations of 2, 6-bis(hydroxy methyl)phenols with active M(n)O(2) were realized, giving 2-hydroxy-3-hydroxymethyl b enzaldehydes and 2-hydroxyisophthalaldehydes in good yields. The influ ence of oxidant activity, reaction solvent and temperature on the sele ctivity were investigated, and favorable conditions developed.
