The application discloses a method for synthesizing 2,2',4,5,5'-pentachloro-4-
biphenyl alcohol based on a
pig liver microsome incubation
system, which comprises the following steps: establishing a
pig liver microsome incubation
system, and adding a substrate 2,2',4,5,5'-pentachlorobiphenyl; the 2,2',4,5,5'-pentachlorobiphenyl is metabolically converted by
pig liver microsomes to form 2,2',4,5,5'-pentachloro-4-
biphenyl alcohol; after termination of the incubation,
isopropyl alcohol,
dichloromethane and n-
hexane are added to the incubation solution, and after oscillation and
centrifugation, the organic phase is transferred and volatilized under high-temperature and reduced-pressure conditions; the 2,2',4,5,5'-pentachloro-4-
biphenyl alcohol is directly converted, the lipid impurities are removed through concentrated
sulfuric acid sulfonation reaction, the residual 2,2',4,5,5'-pentachlorobiphenyl is separated by using a
silica gel column, and thus the purified 2,2',4,5,5'-pentachloro-4-biphenyl alcohol is obtained, and the method has the advantages of simple operation, high conversion efficiency, no interference of isomers, and high purity of target products.
