A process for preparing a benzyl phenyl-acetate of the formula I
wherein R1 is hydroxy, protected hydroxy, hydrogen, C1-C4 alkyl, C1-C4 alkoxy or halo; one of R2 and R3 is hydrogen and the other is phenoxy or C1-C6 alkoxy; which comprises reacting an alkali metal phenylacetate of the formula II
with a benzyl halide of the formula III
wherein M is sodium or potassium, and X is chloro or bromo; in an organic solvent which is inert to esterification and in which the phenylacetic acid salt is substantially insoluble. and in the presence of a catalytic amount of a phase transfer catalyst of. the formula
wherein X' is chloro, bromo, iodo, toluenesulfonate or methanesulfonate; R4 and R5 are independently C1-C16 alkyl, phenyl or benzyl: R6 and R7 are independently C1-C16 alkyl; provided that. when X1 is a group other than iodo, the process is carried out in the presence of from 0.1 to 0.5 mole of an alkali metal iodide per mole of product to be produced.
一种制备式 I 苯乙酸苄酯的工艺
其中 R1 是羟基、受保护的羟基、氢、C1-C4 烷基、C1-C4 烷氧基或卤代物;R2 和 R3 中的一个是氢,另一个是苯氧基或 C1-C6 烷氧基;该工艺包括使式 II 的碱金属苯乙酸盐与式 III 的卤化苄基物反应
与式 III 的苄基卤化物反应
其中 M 是钠或钾,X 是氯或溴,在对酯化惰性且苯乙酸盐基本上不溶解的有机溶剂中,并在催化量的式 III 相转移催化剂存在下进行反应。
其中 X'为氯、溴、碘、甲苯磺酸盐或甲磺酸盐; R4 和 R5 独立地为 C1-C16 烷基、苯基或苄基:当 X1 为碘以外的基团时,该工艺在每摩尔待生产产品含有 0.1 至 0.5 摩尔碱金属碘化物的情况下进行。
