Abstract:
The invention provides a scalable and low cost process for synthesis of different high value 4-alkyl resorcinols such as 3-(2,4-dihydroxyphenyl)propanoic acid, 3- (2,4-dihydroxy-5-methylphenyl)-2-methylpropanoic acid, 4-methyl resorcinol, 4- isopropyl resorcinol and 4-hexyl resorcinol from their corresponding cyclohexane- 1,3-diones. The present invention also provides a process for preparing cyclohexane-1,3-diones which is the starting materials for the synthesis of resorcinols.
