General description

4-Phenyl-1-butanol is oxidized by ceric ammonium nitrate in acetonitrile to afford 2-phenyltetrahydrofuran. It undergoes cyclization in presence of phosphoric acid at high temperature to yield tetralin.

Application

4-Phenyl-1-butanol was used in synthesis of NK105, a paclitaxel-incorporating micellar nanoparticle formulation.

Caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE) is an ester of a hydroxycinnamic acid (phenylpropanoid) and a phenylethanoid (2-phenylethanol; 2-PE), which has long been used in traditional medicine. Here, we synthesized 54 hydroxycinnamic acid-phenylethanoid esters by feeding 64 combinations of hydroxycinnamic acids
