preparation example Construction

[0048] The preparation of the compound represented by formula (1) is described below.

[0049] Compounds represented by formula (1) can be produced by reacting bis(acetoxymethyl) ether with compounds represented by formula (2):

[0050]

[0051] wherein n and X have the same meanings as above.

[0052] The reaction is usually carried out in an organic solvent in the presence of a metal catalyst.

[0053]Examples of the compound represented by the formula (2) include phenol, 4-chlorophenol, 4-nitrophenol, 4-cyanophenol, 2,4-dichlorophenol, 2,4,6-trichlorophenol, 2, 3,6-Trichlorophenol, 2,3,5,6-tetrachlorophenol, 2,3,4,6-tetrachlorophenol, 2,3,4,5,6-pentachlorophenol, 2,6- Dichloro-4-nitrophenol, 2,6-dichloro-4-cyanophenol, 2,4,6-tribromophenol, 2,3,4,5,6-pentabromophenol, 2,6- Dibromo-4-cyanophenol and 2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorophenol.

[0054] Examples of organic solvents include toluene, xylene, mesitylene, dichlorobenzene, and o-dichlorobenzene. Preference is given to usi...

[0064] Hereinafter, the present invention will be further specifically described with reference to Examples and the like.

[0065] First, production examples of ether compounds will be described.

preparation example 1-1

[0066] Preparation Example 1-1 (Steps A to C)

[0067] To 800 ml of 2-methoxyethanol, add 100 g (95.0 g of pure content) of bis(2,4,6-trichlorophenoxymethyl) ether containing 5% by weight of aluminum oxide and 50% of water 91.4 g (pure content 45.7 g, 3.0 equivalents) of sodium methanethiolate, followed by stirring at 100 to 105° C. under a nitrogen atmosphere for 4 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature, and filtered. Thereafter, hexane and 10% NaOH aqueous solution were added, followed by stirring. The mixture was left standing, and then separated. The obtained organic solvent layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and then the solvent was distilled off under normal pressure, thereby obtaining 32.2 g of bis(methylthiomethyl)ether (referred to as compound Y) as a residue .

Abstract

The ether compound represented by formula (3) (where R represents an alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms) can be prepared by the following method, which includes: Step A: In 2-methoxyethanol, the formula (1 ) (where n represents an integer from 0 to 5, X represents a halogen atom, an alkyl group with 1 to 3 carbon atoms, cyano, nitro or trifluoromethyl) and a compound with 1 to 6 carbon atoms Metal alkane thiolate reaction; step B: adding water and a hydrocarbon solvent having 5 to 8 carbon atoms to the reaction mixture obtained in step A, and separating the organic layer; step C: from the reaction mixture obtained in step B The solvent is distilled off in the organic layer to prepare bis(alkylthiomethyl) ether; and step D: the bis(alkylthiomethyl) ether obtained in step C is mixed with 2- Cyanoethanol reacts with halogenating agents.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method for producing an ether compound represented by the following formula (3). Background technique [0002] Ether compounds represented by formula (3) are used to prepare phosphoramidites of nucleotides: [0003] [0004] wherein R represents an alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms. The ether compound represented by formula (3) can be prepared from bis(chloromethyl)ether (see WO 2013 / 027843). However, bis(chloromethyl)ether is a very reactive compound, and it is not easy to use in industry. [0005] For the preparation of α,α'-disaturated dimethyl ethers, it has been proposed to use bis(aryloxymethyl)ether instead of bis(chloromethyl)ether (see USP-3,954,878, JP Hei 04-036269A). Contents of the invention [0006] The present invention provides a method for preparing an ether compound represented by formula (3), the method comprising: [0007] Step A: the compound represented by formula (1): [0008] ...
