[0002] Alkylpyran 3,5-difluorobenzene is an important intermediate of existing liquid crystal materials and is widely used in TFT liquid crystal materials. Currently, alkylpyran 3,5-difluorobenzene is prepared by using alkylpyranone as the starting material, selectively debrominating p-dibromobenzene with butyllithium to generate p-bromophenyllithium, reacting at ultra-low temperature, hydrolyzing to generate alkylpyranol bromobenzene, generating alkylpyran bromobenzene after dehydroxy group removal by a silicon reagent, and then reacting alkylpyran bromobenzene with 3,5-difluorophenylboronic acid through Suzuki reaction.

The Grignard reagent is slowly added from a constant pressure funnel to the ethyl pyranone toluene solution, and the addition is completed within 2.5 h. After the addition is completed, the reaction is carried out at -10 °C for 2 h. The reaction solution after the reaction (the content of ethyl pyranone in the reaction solution is 2.5%, and the content of the by-product tertiary alcohol is 2.3%) is poured into ice water and stirred for 1 h, and then acidified with 10% hydrochloric acid by mass fraction to a pH value of 6.

After stirring to initiate the reaction, control the temperature at 30 °C and dropwise add the remaining p-chlorobromobenzene tetrahydrofuran solution. The addition is completed in 2.5 h. After the addition is completed, control the temperature at 30 °C and stir for 3 h to obtain the Grignard reagent. Under nitrogen protection, cool with cold brine to -10 °C.

[0072] The test results show that in the reaction of Grignard reagent and ethyl pyranone, 17.85% of ethyl pyranone remained unreacted, and 47.74% of the by-product tertiary alcohol was formed, indicating that ethyl pyranone participated in the reaction in the form of lactone under these conditions. Due to the formation of a large amount of by-products, the preparation of ethyl pyran 3,5-difluorobenzene could not proceed normally.

[0073] Comparative Experiment 2: Influence of Conventional Dehydration Catalysts on the Preparation of Ethyl Pyran 3,5-difluorobenzene

[0074] Under nitrogen protection, 100 g (0.781 moL) of ethyl pyranone was dissolved in 200 mL of toluene to obtain an ethyl pyranone toluene solution. The temperature was lowered to -10 °C with cold brine. The Grignard reagent was slowly added from a constant pressure funnel to the ethyl pyranone toluene solution. The addition was completed in 2.5 h. After the addition was completed, the reaction was carried out at -10 °C for 2 h. The reaction solution after the reaction (the content of ethyl pyranone in the reaction solution was 2.5%, and the content of the by-product tertiary alcohol was 2.3%) was poured into ice water and stirred for 1 h. Hydrochloric acid with a mass fraction of 10% was added dropwise until the pH value reached 6. Liquid separation was carried out. The aqueous phase was extracted twice with 200 mL of toluene. The organic phases were combined, washed with water until neutral, and after separating the water completely, the organic phase was put into another clean three-necked flask. 5 g of p-toluenesulfonic acid was added with stirring, and the mixture was heated to reflux. Reflux and water separation were carried out until no water was produced. The acidic resin was removed by filtration, and the filtrate containing alkyl pyran en chloro benzene was detected;

[0075] Among them, the preparation method of the Grignard reagent includes the following steps: 28 g (1.167 moL) of magnesium chips were added to a 1 L three-necked flask, heated and dried under a nitrogen stream, 200 mL of tetrahydrofuran was added, 194.3 g (1.015 moL) of p-chlorobromobenzene was dissolved in 388 mL of tetrahydrofuran for standby. 5 mL of the p-chlorobromobenzene tetrahydrofuran solution was added to the three-necked flask. After stirring to initiate the reaction, the temperature was controlled at 30 °C and the remaining p-chlorobromobenzene tetrahydrofuran solution was added dropwise. The addition was completed in 2.5 h. After the addition was completed, the temperature was controlled at 30 °C and stirred for 3 h to obtain the Grignard reagent;

[0076] The test results show that the content of ethyl pyran en chloro benzene was 42.6%. It is considered that this is due to the too strong acidity of p-toluenesulfonic acid. The too strong acidity of the conventional dehydration catalyst will affect the normal preparation of ethyl pyran 3,5-difluorobenzene.

[0077] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
