Preparation method of (2R,3R)-or (2S,3S)-1,4-dimethoxy-1,1,4,4-tetraphenyl-2,3-butanediol

Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method of (2R,3R)-or (2S,3S)-1,4-dimethoxy-1,1,4,4-tetraphenyl-2,3-butanediol. The preparation method comprises the steps of phenylating optically pure diethyl tartrate to obtain (2R,3R)-or (2S,3S)-1,1,4,4-tetraphenyl butantetraol; reacting with sulfoxide chloride to generate (4R,5R)-or (4S,5S)-4,5-bis diphenyl chloromethyl cyclic sulfite; with presence of alkali, implementing substitution reaction with methanol in a suitable medium to introduce a methoxy group, thus preparing (4R,5R)-or (4S,5S)-4,5-bismethoxy diphenylmethyl cyclic sulfite; and with presence of alkali, removing a sulfinyl protecting group in a suitable medium to obtain (2R,3R)-or (2S,3S)-1,4-dimethoxy-1,1,4,4-tetraphenyl-2,3-butanediol. The method disclosed by the invention is easily available in raw material, simple and convenient to operate, and low in cost.
