This invention discloses a method for preparing 6-bromo-6,6-difluoro-1-
hexanol, belonging to the field of
organic synthesis. The method uses 4-penten-1-ol as a starting material, reacting it with dibromodifluoromethane via an
addition reaction to prepare 4,6-dibromo-6,6-difluoro-1-
hexanol; then, a dehalogenation reaction is carried out using a second
metal reagent to obtain 6-bromo-6,6-difluoro-1-
hexanol. In this method, the reactants and reagents are inexpensive and readily available, the reaction steps are short, and
production control is convenient; the
reaction conditions are mild, ensuring high safety; the process is simple, and the product has high purity.
