참여 물질

반응 단계

To a mixture of 25.0 g of sodium boron hydride, 500 g of water, and 500 g of diethyl ether, with stirring, 100 g of methyl 2-hydroxy-3,3,3-trifluoro-2-trifluoromethylpropionate was added dropwise. The mixture was stirred for 10 hours, after which hydrochloric acid was added to quench the reaction. An organic layer was separated from the reaction mixture, concentrated, and distilled, obtaining 83.9 g of 3,3,3-trifluoro-2-trifluoromethyl-1,2-propane diol (yield 96%).
