Summary: | A process for preparing an aryl allyl ether is disclosed comprising reacting (a) a phenolic compound with (b) an allyl acetate in the presence of (c) an allylation catalyst selected from a ruthenium or rare earth metal catalyst complex comprising at least one stable ligand containing a substituted aromatic-containing moiety, wherein the aromatic-containing ligand is cyclopentadienyl (Cp), pentamethylcyclopentadienyl (Cp*), indenyl (In), or 9-fluorenyl (F1), or a substituted olefinic-containing ligand, wherein the olefinic moiety is a cyclooctadienyl (COD) or butyldienyl moiety or substituted olefinic-containing ligands. A process for the preparation of an epoxy-containing compound is disclosed comprising epoxidizing the aryl allyl ether compound made according to this invention. |
