The present invention relates to a 2-nitro-6-hydroxy-β-phenylethyl alcohol derivative represented by the formula: (wherein R 1 represents a benzyl group). The compound of the present invention represented by the formula [] is very important as an intermediate for producing 4-substituted indoles. That is, by heating the novel compound of formula [] as it is or once deriving it into an amino compound and then heating it in the presence of a catalyst, 4 can be easily and in high yield.
-Can lead to hydroxyindoles and their derivatives. 4-Substituted indoles are useful as raw materials for the synthesis of medicines or agricultural chemicals. For example, 4-hydroxyindole is used as an antiarrhythmic agent and antihypertensive agent, such as pindolol [4-(2-hydroxy-3
-isopropylamino-propoxy)indole] is used as a synthetic raw material. The compound [] of the present invention can be obtained by reacting a 2-nitro-6-hydroxytoluene derivative represented by the general formula [] with formaldehyde. It is known to react substituted toluene with formaldehyde to produce β-phenylethyl alcohols. However, little is known about the compound of the present invention. As a result of intensive research, the present inventors discovered that the compound of the present invention [] could be obtained in extremely high yield by reacting a 2-nitro-6-hydroxytoluene derivative with formaldehydes, and developed the method of the present invention. completed. The 2-nitro-6-hydroxytoluene derivative of the general formula [], which is a raw material, can be easily obtained using 2,6 dinitrotoluene, which is industrially available at extremely low cost, as a starting material. The method for producing the compound of the present invention is suitably carried out by dissolving a 2-nitro-6-hydroxytoluene derivative in an aprotic polar solvent, adding an alkali metal alkoxide as a catalyst, and then adding formaldehyde for reaction. . Examples of the aprotic polar solvent include dimethylformamide, dimethylacetamide, dimethylsulfoxide, dimethylsulfone, and hexamethylphosphoramide. Particularly preferred are dimethyl sulfoxide and dimethyl formamide. As the alkali metal alkoxide, lower alcohols and alkali metal salts of phenols can be used. Specific examples include methanol, ethanol, and alkali metal salts of phenol, such as sodium methoxide, sodium ethoxide, and sodium phenoxide. The amount of alkoxide to be used may be 1 to 50 mol % based on the compound of the general formula [] as a raw material. Formaldehydes used in the method of the present invention include formaldehyde, paraformaldehyde, and formaldehyde condensation polymers that easily decompose under reaction conditions to generate formaldehyde, such as polyoxymethylene. The amount of formaldehyde used is 0.2 to 1.5 per the compound represented by the general formula [].
It is in the double molar range. The reaction temperature is 0°C to 100°C, preferably 10°C to 70°C. Although the reaction time is not particularly limited, it is generally preferable to carry out the reaction for 0.2 to 2 hours in terms of yield. After the reaction is completed, the solvent is distilled off from the reaction mixture, water is added, and a new solvent is used to take out the target compound. Next, the method of the present invention will be explained in more detail with reference to Examples. Example 1 2-nitro-6-benzyloxy-toluene
9.8 g (40 mmol) of dimethyl sulfoxide 100
2.2 g of paraformaldehyde dissolved in ml
(70 mmol) and 0.75 g of sodium methoxide
(14 mmol) was added, and the mixture was reacted at 25°C for 30 minutes with stirring. After the reaction is complete, the solvent is distilled off and the water is removed.
Add 100ml and extract with chloroform (40ml x 3
2 times) and washed with water (60 ml x 1 time). After drying over anhydrous sodium sulfate, it was concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain 12.1 g of a residue.
This was separated and purified by chromatography (silica gel, chloroform), and 10.4 g of 2-nitro-6-benzyloxy-β-phenylethyl alcohol was used.
I got it. Yield: 95% The physical properties of this compound are as follows. IR(KBr.cm -1 ); 3350cm -1 (-OH) 1520cm -1 , 1350cm -1 (-NO 2 ) MS(m/e); 273(M + ) NMR(CDCl 3 ) δ(ppm); 2.95~3.20 (2H, t) 3.70~3.93 (2H, t) 5.04 (2H, s) 7.0~7.33 (8H)
