Abstract

The invention discloses a synthesis method of 4-isopropylresorcinol. The method comprises the following steps: group protection, Grignard reaction, hydrodeoxygenation and deprotection. According to the method, a novel protecting group halomethyl methyl ether is adopted for protecting phenolic hydroxy, then the Grignard reaction is performed on 3 milliliters of methylmagnesium chloride or methylmagnesium bromide, hydrogenation is performed under low pressure and normal temperature in the presence of acid, and the protecting group is removed with hydrochloric acid to obtain the 4-isopropylresorcinol. The problem of difficulty in treatment after Witting reaction is solved, the temperature and the pressure of hydrogenation reaction are reduced, the hydrogenation time is shortened, deprotectionis finally implemented under a mild condition, and the whole process is a safe production process capable of implementing industrial production.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The present invention relates to a kind of synthetic method of 4-isopropyl resorcinol. Background technique: [0002] 4-Isopropyl resorcinol is an important fine chemical intermediate, and the current main synthesis methods can be classified into the following two types: [0003] The first method is to protect 2,4-dihydroxyacetophenone with benzyl bromide or benzyl chloride, then use Witting reaction, and then carry out hydrogenation to obtain the final product. Due to the influence of the objective synthesis mechanism, the Witting reaction will produce a large amount of waste triphenylphosphine that is difficult to handle, and high temperature and high pressure are required in the hydrogenation process, and the hydrogenation reaction speed is relatively slow. Generally, it takes more than 20 hours to complete the reaction, reaching a relative Ideal yield. The second method is the Friedel-Crafts alkylation of resorcinol and isopropanol in the presen...
