반응 단계

4-hydroxyphenylacetaldehyde (15) was synthesized as described in Heterocycles, 2000, 53, 777-784. 4-Hydroxyphenethyl alcohol (Compound 141.0 g, 7.3 mmol, Aldrich) was dissolved in dimethylsulfoxide (8 mL, Aldrich). With stirring, TEA (2.2 mL, 16 mmol, Aldrich) was added slowly. Pyridine-sulfur trioxide (SO3.py) complex (2.5 g, 16 mmol, Aldrich) was completely dissolved in dimethylsulfoxide (9 mL, Aldrich) and this solution was added drop-wise to the alcohol, with vigorous stirring. After stirring for 1 h at room temperature, the reaction was diluted with CH2Cl2, then washed with ice-cold water. The organic layer was dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated to dryness. Purification using silica gel chromatography with hexane-ethyl acetate as eluent (5:1, then 2:1) yielded 488 mg (49%) of 4-hydroxyphenylacetaldehyde (15).
