General description

Cyclohexyl phenyl ether is an alkyl aryl ether. It undergoes thermolysis and aquathermolysis reactions to yield 1-methylcyclopentene and phenol as major products. Cyclohexyl phenyl ether can be synthesized from cyclohexyl bromide and phenol. It can also be prepared from 2-cyclohexen-1-one via oxidative aromatization in the presence of VO(OEt)Cl2 and cyclohexanol.
