A. Benzoin condensation: When an ethanolic solution of benzaldehyde is heated with a strong alkali like KCN or NaCN, we get benzoin.
B. Formation of Phenolphthalein: When phenol is treated with a pthalic anhydride in the presence of concentrated H2SO4, it gives phenolphthalein, an indicator.
C. Fries rearrangement: When phenyl benzoate heated with anhydrous AlCl3 in the presence of inert solvent gives ortho and para - hydroxy benzophenone. In this rearrangement, there is a benzoyl group migration from the phenolic oxygen to an ortho and para - position.
D. Methyl salicylate: A chief constituent of oil of wintergreen
