Better results were obtained with benzyl alcohol as benzylation agent and the most active resin was Amberlyst-15. The benzylation of toluene and anisole with benzyl alcohol, catalyzed by Amberlyst-15, was also evaluated, the conversion of benzyl alcohol being proportional to the concentration of acid sites in the resin. Monobenzylation to benzyl toluene or benzyl anisole is the main reaction and the selectivity was usually found to be higher than 80%, when a toluene/alcohol or anisole/alcohol molar ratio of 10 is used.
