The invention is directed to a process for the preparation of 5-alkyl-4-hydroxy-3[2H]furanones and/or 2,5-dialkyl-4-hydroxy-3[2H]furanones, wherein each alkyl group independently has one to six carbon atoms, comprising;
(a) saponification of an ester selected from the group of 3,4-dihydroxyfurans substituted at the 2- and/or 5-position with one or two carbalkoxy groups, wherein each alkoxy group independently contains one to six carbon atoms, and optionally substituted at the 2- or 5-position with an alkyl group with one to six carbon atoms, or tautomeric forms or keto-enol isomers thereof;
(b) subsequent treatment with one or two alkylation reagents which independently may have one to six carbon atoms;
(c) subsequent recovery of the 5-alkyl-4-hydroxy-3[2H]furanones and/or 2,5-dialkyl-4-hydroxy-3[2H]furanones.
本发明涉及一种制备 5-烷基-4-羟基-3[2H]呋喃酮和/或 2,5-二烷基-4-羟基-3[2H]呋喃酮的工艺,其中每个烷基独立地具有 1 至 6 个碳原子,该工艺包括;
(a) 皂化选自在 2-位和/或 5-位被一个或两个烷氧基取代的 3,4-二羟基呋喃(其中 每个烷氧基独立地含有 1 至 6 个碳原子,并且可选地在 2-位或 5-位被 1 至 6 个碳原子的烷基或其同分异构体或酮烯醇异构体取代)组中的酯;
(b) 随后用一种或两种烷基化试剂进行处理,这些试剂可分别具有 1 至 6 个碳原子;
(c) 随后回收 5-烷基-4-羟基-3[2H]呋喃酮和/或 2,5-二烷基-4-羟基-3[2H]呋喃酮。
