Sodium phenoxide is an organic compound with the formula NaOC6H5. This white solid is the conjugate base of phenol. It is used as a precursor to many other organic compounds, such as aryl ethers.
Synthesis and structure
Most commonly, solutions of sodium phenoxide are produced by treating phenol with sodium hydroxide.[1] Anhydrous derivatives can be prepared from phenol and sodium:
- Na + HOC6H5 → NaOC6H5 + 1/2 H2
Like other sodium alkoxides, crystalline sodium phenolate adopts a complex structures involving multiple Na-O bonds. Solvent-free material is polymeric, each Na center being bound to three oxygen ligands as well as the phenyl ring. Adducts of sodium phenoxide are molecular, such as the cubane [NaOPh]4(HMPA)4.[2]
Reactions
Sodium phenoxide is a moderately strong base. At low pH's gives phenol:[3]
- PhOH ⇌ PhO− + H+ (K = 10−10)
Sodium phenoxide can be used to prepare phenyl ethers and metal phenolates:[1]
- NaOC6H5 + RBr → ROC6H5 + NaBr
