The wilgerodt, on its surface, seems like an easily achievable route to phenylacetic acid. While morphololine is generally hard to come by, cyclohexylamine is likely the next best candidate for the job, as it's not too expensive, available, and unwatched.
My question is, when using an amine like cyclohexylamine, is there a risk of formation of hydrogen sulphide?
And is the amine recoverable/reusable?
Also, has anyone had much success with the calcium phenylacetate/calcium acetate route of turning phenylacetic acid into p2p?
