Application | (S)-(-)-2-bromo-1-α-methylbenzyl alcohol is a chiral secondary alcohol and is an important intermediate for the synthesis of optically active drugs. It is generally prepared by selective reduction of o-bromoacetophenone. |
Synthesis method | (S)-(-)-2-bromo-1-α-methylbenzyl alcohol Asymmetric synthesis: 0.5mmol of 1-(2-bromophenyl) ethanol is added to the test tube, 1.5 mmol of dipropylene glycol dimethyl ether is added to the oxygen ball, and the reaction is carried out at 120 ℃ for 12 hours until the reaction is complete, add 2.5mmol of sodium formate, 0.0025mmol of catalyst B, add 4mL of methanol: water (3:1), replace with nitrogen for 3 times, react at 50 ℃ for 12 hours, wash with water after the reaction, extract with ethyl acetate for 3 times in the aqueous phase, concentrate the organic phase to dry, and separate by column chromatography (petroleum ether: ethyl acetate = 10:1), (S)-(-)-2-bromo-1-α-methylbenzyl alcohol (67.3mg) was obtained with a yield of 91% and an ee value of 88%. |
