Abstract

The invention comprises substituted aralkyl carbinols of the general formula <FORM:0785389/IV (a)/1> wherein R represents a carbonyl group (-CO-) or a hydrogenated carbonyl group (-HCOH-), and the preparation thereof by condensing a ,a -dichloroacetophenone with formaldehyde in the presence of an alkaline catalyst at a temperature between 0 DEG and 40 DEG C. to form the compound in which R is the carbonyl group, and when required, reacting this product with a low-boiling aliphatic secondary alcohol to form the compound in which R represents the hydrogenated carbonyl group. The alkaline catalyst may be an alkali metal hydroxide, an alkaline earth metal hydroxide or a tertiary amine. The alkaline catalyst is preferably employed in an amount between 1 and 3 per cent by weight of the reactants. The reaction with the low-boiling aliphatic secondary alcohol, e.g. isopropanol, is preferably carried out in the presence of aluminium alcoholate as catalyst, e.g. aluminium isopropoxide. In the examples 2-benzoyl-2,3-dichloroethanol and 3-phenyl-2,2-dichloropropane diol are prepared. Esters of the carbinols of the above general formula are mentioned.
