The invention provides an
estetrol intermediate compound B as shown in a formula (I), a preparation method of the compound B and a method for preparing a
compound A and
estetrol from the compound B. According to the present invention,
estrone is adopted as the starting material, the compound B is constructed through the olefin etherification reaction, the
compound A is obtained through the oxidation reaction, and the target product
compound A can be obtained through the two-step reaction, such that the synthesis
route is shortened, the synthesis steps are simplified, the total yield of the reaction can achieve 82%, and the purity of the obtained compound A is more than 98%. According to the
route, the reaction yield and efficiency are improved, and the obtained compound is high in purity, low in cost, beneficial to large-scale industrial production and wide in commercial application prospect. (I).
