Background
(R) Butyl-2- (4-hydroxyphenoxy) propionate (compound 1) is a key intermediate for synthesizing the efficient chiral herbicide cyhalofop-butyl, and the structural formula of the intermediate is as follows:
Figure DEST_PATH_IMAGE001
(R) The synthesis route of the butyl (4-hydroxyphenoxy) propionate is mainly a hydroquinone method, namely a method using hydroquinone and (C)S) Taking-2-butyl chloropropionate as a raw material, taking water, DMF (dimethyl formamide) or ethylene glycol monomethyl ether as a solvent, and carrying out etherification reaction under the action of an acid-binding agent to obtain a main byproduct (a)R) -butyl 2- (4-hydroxyphenoxy) propionate with (A)S) The etherification reaction of the (2-butyl chloropropionate) is continued to obtain a by-product of the double etherification, namely 2, 2' - (1, 4-phenyl (dioxy)) (2R, 2’R) Dibutyl dipropionate (2). The method is simple, but has the following common problems: the one-way conversion rate must be sacrificed to ensure the product selectivity, and the product quality is poor because the hydroquinone is easy to oxidize and difficult to separate from the product and the byproduct; the increase of the one-way conversion rate of byproducts increases, the cost is increased, and the economical efficiency is poor; when water is used as a solvent, a large amount of phenol-containing waste brine is generated, and great pressure is generated on environmental protection treatment.

The method can not inhibit the bi-etherification by-products, and the separation of the bi-ethers from the products is difficult.
In addition, although the conventional method adopting large excess of hydroquinone can reduce the diether byproduct 2, the residual hydroquinone in the reaction liquid is very much because of the hydroquinone and the product (A), (B), (C) and (D)R) The butyl-2- (4-hydroxyphenoxy) propionate contains phenolic hydroxyl, the content of hydroquinone in the product is controlled to be lower than 0.1 percent through complex post-treatment, a large amount of phenolic wastewater is generated, and great environmental protection pressure is caused.
