What is 2'-Hydroxy-4'-methylacetophenone?
The Uses of 2'-Hydroxy-4'-methylacetophenone
2′-Hydroxy-4′-methylacetophenone is found in Angelica koreana roots and a study was done in which it could be useful for natural acaricides against three mite species.
Preparation
Preparation by treatment of methyl 4-hydroxy-7- methyl-coumarin-3-carboxylate with potassium hydroxide at 200° (87%).

General Description
2′-Hydroxy-4′-methylacetophenone, also known as 1-(2-hydroxy-4-methylphenyl)ethanone can be synthesized by the Fries rearrangement of m-tolyl acetate in the presence of zirconium tetrachloride. The results from the toxicity studies on mite species suggest that 2′-hydroxy-4′-methylacetophenone possesses acaricidal property.
