Abstract

The invention discloses a method for reducing acid into alcohol by sodium borohydride. The reaction is carried out as follows: changing a reaction solvent and adding a phase transfer catalyst to reduce the acid into the alcohol by the sodium borohydride under the constant temperature by using sodium borohydride as a reducing agent, water as a solvent and cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide as the phase transfer catalyst. By using the water as the solvent, the using of organic solvent is avoided, the pollution is reduced, and the environment protection is realized; and meanwhile, lithium aluminium hydride is replaced by the sodium borohydride, the process is simplified, and the large-scale industrial production is easily performed. The system has a good effect on fatty acid, and also has a good reduction effect on some aromatic and heterocyclic acids.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a reduction reaction, in particular to a method for sodium borohydride to reduce acid to alcohol. Background technique [0002] Carboxylic acid reduction is one of the important reactions in organic synthesis. In organic compounds, carboxylic acid is a kind of substance that is difficult to reduce. Lithium aluminum hydride can reduce carboxylic acid to alcohol. This reduction reaction has a high yield and is the most common method for reducing carboxylic acid. However, the selectivity of lithium aluminum hydride as a reducing agent is poor, and carboxyl groups and other functional groups are often reduced; on the other hand, lithium aluminum hydride is expensive and requires very strict anhydrous treatment of reagents, which limits its practical application. Difficult for industrialized production. [0003] Sodium borohydride has low reducing activity and generally cannot reduce acids. In recent years, it has been reported t...
