synthesis method | The classical synthesis method is glacial acetic acid as acylating agent, zinc chloride as catalyst, but the decolorization is difficult, yield is not high, mostly in 60% ~ 8%; Also useful for acetic anhydride acyl agent, ion exchange resin as catalyst; Also with acetyl chloride, acetonitrile acylation agent, snCl is a catalyst, but these methods are not suitable for industrialization. |
biological activity | 2 ',4'-dihydroxy phenone (Resacetophenone) is acetophenone substituted with a hydroxyl group at the 2 'and 4' positions. Plant Metabolites. |
Use | is useful as an intermediate in organic synthesis. Pharmaceutical industry for the preparation of coronary heart disease drugs such as ethoxyflavone. 2, 4-dihydroxyacetophenone is an important intermediate. It can be used for the preparation of anti-angina drugs, can also be used for the preparation of pesticides, flavonoids and other fine chemical products. |
production method | is obtained by acetylation of resorcinol with acetic acid. In addition, the product can also be obtained by reacting resorcinol with Chloroacetyl or acetic anhydride in the presence of zinc chloride. |
