Abstract

PURPOSE:To produce 5-bromo-2-pentanone useful as a synthetic intermediate for agrochemicals and)harmaceuticals in a high yield with decreased consumption of hydrobromic acid by reacting alpha-acetyl-gamma-butyrolactone with hydrobromic acid in a scarcely water-soluble solvent in the presence of sulfuric acid. CONSTITUTION:5-Bromo-2-pentanone is produced by reacting alpha-acetyl-gamma- butyrolactone with hydrobromic acid in a scarcely water-soluble solvent (e.g. benzene, toluene, xylene, dichloroethane and cyclohexane) in the presence of sulfuric acid. Hydrobromic acid having a concentration of about 47wt.% and often used in industrial use is preferably used in the above reaction. The amount of the hydrobromic acid is preferably 0.8-1.3mol based on 1mol of the alpha-acetyl-gamma- butyrolactone and that of the solvent is preferably 4-15 pts.vol. based on 1pt.wt. of the alpha-acetyl-gamma-butyrolactone. 5-Bromo-2-pentanone is an important synthetic intermediate for 5-bromo-2-pentanone ketal derivative which is a starting raw material for benzindane derivatives useful as pharmaceuticals.
