Background and overview[1]
3,3-Diphenylpropyl-2-propen-1-ol can be used as a pharmaceutical synthesis intermediate. Traditionally, carbonyl compounds are reduced to the corresponding alcohols through stoichiometric reduction of hydrides such as NaBH4, LiAlH4, or metal catalysts catalyze the reaction of carbonyl compounds and hydrogen. to achieve. However, these reagents have many shortcomings. NaBH4 and LiAlH4 are both sensitive to air and moisture. Using hydrogen as a hydrogen source requires more demanding equipment and technology. If 3,3-diphenylpropyl-2-propen-1-ol, a commonly used antioxidant, is inhaled, move the patient to fresh air; if skin contact occurs, remove contaminated clothing and wash thoroughly with soap and water. Rinse the skin and seek medical attention if you feel any discomfort. If contact occurs with eyes, separate the eyelids, rinse with running water or saline, and seek medical attention immediately. If ingested, rinse mouth immediately. Do not induce vomiting and seek medical attention immediately.
Preparation[1]
3,3-Diphenylpropyl-2-propen-1-ol is prepared as follows: 4-[2-phenylvinyl]acetophenone (1mmol), NaOH (20mol%) and [Cu6(dmpymt)6] (1.67 mol%) was added to a dry reflux reaction tube equipped with a magnetic stirrer, and then anhydrous isopropyl alcohol (2 mL) was added. Then, the reaction tube was replaced with N2 three times, and the reaction was stirred at 100°C for 24 hours. After the reaction, the solution was cooled to room temperature, 5 mL of water was added, and then extracted with 3×5 mL of ethyl acetate. The organic phases were combined, and the organic phases were dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered, and the filtrate was concentrated by rotary evaporation and separated by silica gel column chromatography to obtain The target product 3,3-diphenylpropyl-2-propen-1-ol (yield 91%).
