Abstract:A variety of aryl hydroxyalkyl carbonates (1-7) have been synthesized and thermolyzed in the neat state at 150 and 250 °C. The aryl hydroxyalkyl carbonates 9 and 10 derived from glycerol and 11 derived from ethylene glycol decomposed at room temperature. Alkyl substitution in the diol moiety of the 1-[ [(aryloxy)carbonyl] oxy] -3-propanol derivatives 4 and 5 enhanced the phenolic release as compared to the unsubstituted derivative 3. 2-[[(2-Methoxy-4-formylphenoxy)carbonyl]oxy]-4-pentanol (8) decomposed at roo… Show more
