ketone compound and a preparation method thereof, and belongs to the technical field of
organic synthesis. The structural general formula of the alpha, alpha-dihaloketone compound is # imgabs0, in the formula, R is
aryl or heteroaryl, R1 is
hydrogen,
aryl or
alkyl, and X is a
halogen atom. The preparation method comprises the following steps: (1) carrying out heating reaction on an ethynyl compound, a halogenating
reagent, water and an
organic solvent; (2) pouring into water, extracting, collecting an organic phase,
drying, and carrying out reduced pressure
distillation; and (3) separating and purifying. The synthesis
route provided by the invention has the advantages of cheap and easily available substrate and halogenating
reagent, wide range, strong applicability, green
oxygen source, no
transition metal catalysis, mild condition, efficient reaction, energy saving, safe reaction
route, simple operation and the like.
