The invention relates to the technical field of
organic synthesis, and discloses a method for synthesizing a pyroxasulfone intermediate. In the presence of a first
solvent and a first catalyst, carrying out first reaction on the compound shown in the formula IV and a chloromethylation
reagent to obtain a compound shown in a formula III; in the presence of a third
solvent, carrying out third reaction on the compound shown in the formula III and a
sulfur compound to obtain a compound shown in a formula II; and in the presence of a fourth
solvent, a second catalyst and a second alkali, carrying out fourth reaction on the compound in the formula II and a halogenated isoxazoline derivative to obtain the compound in the formula I. The method for synthesizing the pyroxasulfone intermediate provided by the invention solves the problems of high risk, environmental
pollution and the like in the prior art, the reaction
route is short, the whole process is mild in reaction condition, simple to operate and short in reaction time, and the product obtained by the reaction is high in purity, easy to separate, high in yield, low in
discharge of three wastes, environment-friendly, low in production cost and suitable for industrial production. The method is suitable for industrial
mass production.
