Synthesis of isomers of eugenol

Abstract
In connection with an investigation of the correlation between structure and reactivity of eugenol isomers, o-eugenol, 3-allyl-2-methoxyphenol and chavibetol were synthesized. A five-step synthesis was found to be most suitable for the preparation of 3-allyl-2-methoxyphenol. An improved separation of chavibetol from eugenol was achieved by gas chromatography.
