Oxidation Reactions of Marchantin A Trimethyl Ether and Some Aromatic Compounds using m -Chloroperbenzoic Acid. Formation of Muconic Acid Ester and m -Chlorobenzoate
On treatment with m-chloroperbenzoic acid, dihydroeugenol methyl ether and marchantin A trimethyl ether afford muconic acid ester derivatives by oxidation of the aromatic ring as well as hydroxylated derivatives; the m-chlorobenzoate of the dihydroeugenol derivative is also observed for the former.
