Citric Acid → Veratraldehyde

関与物質

反応手順

22 ml of a dipotassium hydrogen phosphate/citric acid buffer solution of pH 4.5 (prepared by titrating a 0.2 M potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution with a 0.1 M citric acid solution and diluting to 1/4) were treated at 45° C. with 269 mg (1.60 mmol) of 3,4-dimethoxybenzyl alcohol in 1 ml of ethanol. 32.1 mg (0.180 mmol) of 3-amino-N-hydroxyphthalimide were added with stirring. After approx. 10 minutes, the mixture was treated with 5 ml of an aqueous solution of 2 mg/ml laccase from Trametes versicolor (specific activity approx. 18 IU/mg, defined with ABTS as substrate). After a reaction time of 22 hours, the reaction solution was extracted with chloroform and examined by NMR spectroscopy. Yield 92% of 3,4-dimethoxybenzaldehyde.
