Description

The method for preparing alkoxyl group phenol and aryloxy phenol
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of method for preparing alkoxyl group phenol and aryloxy phenol.
Background technology
Alkoxyl group phenol and aryloxy phenol are the products with extensive industrial use.Wherein, for example, sesamol, just 3,4-(methylene-dioxy) phenol is a kind ofly to be used as intermediate and can be used as antioxidant, antiseptic-germicide and weedicide and to be used for the compound of cosmetic industry in the preparation of medicament production.
In synthetic method, a kind of very frequent reaction of using is Baeyer-Villiger reaction, and it has used corresponding aromatic aldehyde.This reaction comprises aldehyde cpd is changed into corresponding phenol manthanoate and produces phenolic compound with posthydrolysis.
For example at US 5,840, in 997, described and used the alkoxyl group phenol of corresponding aldehyde and the preparation of aryloxy phenol.Use methylene dichloride to make solvent, in heterogeneous, carry out this oxidising process with hydrogen peroxide and formic acid.
Patent application EP 1167365 A1 have described a kind of by use the method for the corresponding piperonylaldehyde of peracetic acid oxidation with synthetic sesamol in the presence of formic acid in organic solvent.
At Ind.J.Chem.1983, in 22,1150, in the chlorinated solvent of methylene dichloride and so on, use metachloroperbenzoic acid with the aromatic aldehyde compound oxidation to obtain phenol derivatives.
At SU688, in 492, in the chlorinated solvent of methylene dichloride and so on, use the performic oxidation aldehydes.
Aromatic ketone is oxidized to corresponding phenol almost only is used for methyl phenyl ketone and benzophenone, and, therefore do not consider C owing to obtain the mixture of lower reaction of selectivity and generation ester class usually 2-C 6The higher homologue of aliphatic ketone (referring to March, Advanced Organic Chemistry, 5 ThEdition, Wiley, p.1417).
J.Am.Chem.Soc. 71, 14 (1949) have described with extremely long reaction times (10 days) some ketone of usefulness peroxybenzoic acid oxidation in chloroform.
Synthesis, 1989,167-171 has described with high density (90%) hydrogen peroxide and under the condition that selenium compound exists as oxide catalyst methyl phenyl ketone has been oxidized to phenol.
Synthesis Comm.29 (21), 3781-3791 (1999) have described with hydrogen peroxide oxidation aromatic aldehyde, methyl phenyl ketone and benzophenone, and this is reflected at the vitriolic existence and activates with boric acid down.
Do not mention the aromatic ketone that is different from methyl phenyl ketone or benzophenone derivative about use.
Because the high density of hydrogen peroxide, to the existence and the very long reaction times of the oxide catalyst of the serious boron of environmental influence or selenium and so on, described condition almost can't be used.
Therefore, impel the technician of alkoxyl group phenol and aryloxy phenol preparation field to consider the bigger advantage of the corresponding aromatic aldehyde of oxidation.
Brief summary of the invention
The applicant is surprised to find that, can overcome the defective of prior art by method of the present invention, and method of the present invention is included in the ketone of use formula (I) in the oxidizing reaction of using peracid
