Description

Preparation method of 2,6-dihydroxytoluene
Technical Field
The invention relates to a preparation method of 2,6-dihydroxytoluene, belonging to the technical field of organic synthesis.

2,6-dihydroxytoluene, CAS:608-25-3, english name: 2,6-Dihydroxytoluene contains two meta-phenolic hydroxyl groups and one ortho-methyl group, can be subjected to different modifications, has special physical and chemical properties, is an important chemical raw material, and has very important application in the chemical field, such as synthetic resin, dyeing, medicines, pesticides, pigments, dyes, hair dyes, agricultural chemicals, catalytic application, photosensitive materials, explosives and the like. Such as 2,6-dihydroxytoluene and phthalic anhydride, to obtain anthraquinone compounds, and then modifying the hydroxyl and methyl thereof to synthesize the antitumor drug damnacanthus brevis essence; for example, 2,6-dihydroxytoluene is used as a raw material to synthesize a series of phenyl porphyrin compounds applied to high molecular materials, molecular targeted drugs, chemical catalysis and the like; derivatives such as 2,6-dihydroxytoluene are also used in large quantities in shampoos, skin-care products and the like.
The literature [ Chemical Science,2015, vol.6, #8, p.4674-4680] uses 2-methyl-1, 3-cyclohexanedione as a raw material, obtained in 92% yield by catalytic hydrogenation and dehydrogenation in Pd/C, which is more expensive than the product, and uses a Pd/C expensive catalyst, which is too costly. The reaction equation is as follows:
Figure BDA0003967979570000011
at present, the relatively economic synthesis method comprises the introduction of phenolic hydroxyl (such as halogen high-temperature hydrolysis CN113698276,2021, A and the like or amino diazotization hydrolysis CN114085132,2022, A) or the introduction of methyl (such as methanol ammonium chloride high-temperature high-pressure methylation CN106554255,2017, A), but the reaction has the defects of limitation, poor selectivity, low yield, difficult purification and high requirement on equipment.
Patent CN104341275,2016, B reports that 3-chloro-2-methylaniline is used as a raw material, one of the phenolic hydroxyl groups is introduced by diazotization hydrolysis of amino group, and the other phenolic hydroxyl group is introduced by halogen high-temperature hydrolysis, so that the method has relatively high yield and high purity of the obtained product, but the temperature needs 190-200 ℃ in the halogen high-temperature hydrolysis process, and the requirement on equipment is high. The reaction equation is as follows:
Figure BDA0003967979570000021
in view of the above problems, there is a need to provide a novel process, which has relatively low reaction temperature, relatively safe operation, stable process and high product purity, and avoids the problems of poor reaction selectivity, high equipment requirement, and the like, so as to meet the increasing market demand.
