Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain the subject substance useful as a synthetic intermediate for agricultural chemicals in high yield and optical purity by reacting an optically active 2-halogenobutanoic acid alkali metal salt with an alkali metal salt of phenol. CONSTITUTION:The objective compound of formula III can be produced by reacting 1 equivalent of a compound of formula I (X is C1 or Br; M is alkali metal) with 0.8-5 equivalent of a compound of formula II (Y is halogen, lower alkyl or CF3; n is 1-3) in a solvent at 20-50% for 5-20hr. The solvent is a dipolar aprotic solvent such as DMF, DMSO or hexamethyl phosphoric amide or a polar solvent such as water or alcohol or, in the case of dipolar aprotic solvent, a mixture of the solvent and an aprotic solvent such as benzene. The starting compounds of formula I and formula II may be separately synthesized in advance or synthesized in the reaction solvent and used as it is.
