Abstract
Liquid phase alkylation of phenol with 4-hydroxybutan-2-one, cyclisation of (phenylthio)acetaldehyde diethylacetal and elcectrophilic substitution of indole with a variety of aromtic aldehydes were investigated over Hβ, HY, H-ZSM-5, ion-exchanged β and Y zeolites and modified zeolites. Raspberry ketone was obtained regioselectively over Hβ (Si/Al=10) catalyst in 77 % yield. This product is formed not only by direct alkylation but also by the facile rearrangment of O-alkylated product. Zn2+ ion-exchanged β and Y zeolites showed better activity than its H-form counterpart owing to its higher Lewis acidity in the formation of benzo[b]thiophene and bis(indolyl)methanes respectively.
