A method of manufacturing a lignocellulose compd. (by machine translation)

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a production method capable of obtaining a high-purity benzyl ether compound at excellent yield by a simple method. SOLUTION: This invention relates to a method for producing a benzyl ether compound represented by general formula (In the formula, R1-R3each represents a hydrogen atom, a 1-3C alkyl group, or a 1-3C alkoxy group, and R4represents a 1-3C alkyl group) which is obtained by reacting a benzyl alcohol compound having a phenol group with an aliphatic alcohol compound in the presence of an inorganic acid and a nitro compound.

Silica-supported sodium hydrogen sulfate catalyzed facile transformation of p-hydroxybenzyl alcohols to p-hydroxybenzyl ethers and thioethers

The heterogeneous catalyst, silica-supported sodium hydrogen sulfate (NaHSO4·SiO2) has been found to be highly efficient in carrying out the transformation of p-hydroxybenzyl alcohols at room temperature to p-hydroxybenzyl ethers and thioethers in very high yields.
