The invention concerns a novel process for the preparation of 2-phenyl-2-hydroxy-N-[2-(3-alkoxy-4-hydroxyphenyl)-ethyl]-acetamides of the formula (I), wherein R
1
is alkyl, R
2
and R
3
are each independently hydrogen or alkyl, and R
4
is optionally substituted aryl or optionally substituted heteroaryl, which process comprises reacting a 2-(3-alkoxy-4-hydroxyphenyl)-ethylamine of the formula (II), wherein R
1
R
2
and R
3
are as defined above with a α-hydoxycarboxylic acid ester of the formula (III) or a dioxolanone of the formula (III)a, wherein R
4
is as defined above, and R
5
, R
6
and R
7
independently of each other are lower alkyl. The compounds of formula (I) are important intermediates for a novel group of fungicides derived from mandelic acid amides.
本发明涉及一种新型的制备2-苯基-2-羟基-N-[2-(3-烷氧基-4-羟基苯基)-乙基]-乙酰胺(式(I))的方法,其中R1为烷基,R2和R3各自独立地为氢或烷基,而R4为可选的取代芳基或可选的取代杂环芳基,该方法包括将式(II)的2-(3-烷氧基-4-羟基苯基)-乙胺与式(III)的α-羟基羧酸酯或式(III)a的二氧杂环戊酮反应,其中R1、R2和R3如上所定义,而R4如上所述,而R5、R6和R7各自独立地为低烷基。式(I)的化合物是从苦杏仁酸酰胺衍生的一类新型杀菌剂的重要中间体。
