AN INEXPENSIVE AND CONVENIENT PROCEDURE FOR CHLOROMETHYLATION OF AROMATIC HYDROCARBONS BY PHASE TRANSFER CATALYSIS IN AQUEOUS MEDIA

Reaction of aromatic hydrocarbons catalyzed by a novel catalytic system consisting of zinc chloride, acetic acid, sulfuric acid and PEG-800 in aqueous media under PTC conditions results in chloromethylation in good to excellent yield.
