Diethyl Ether → 6-(Hydroxymethyl)naphthalen-2-ol

참여 물질

반응 단계

To the slurry of lithium aluminum hydride (2 equi.) in THF (3 mL/mmole), a solution of 6-hydroxy-naphthalene-2-carboxylic acid (15) (1 equi.) in THF (3 ml/mmole) was added at ice temperature over a period of 20 min. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 24 h, cooled to ice temperature, added diethyl ether (20 mL/mmole), quenched slowly with water (1 mL/g LAH), 15% aqueous sodium hydroxide (1 mL/g LAH), and water (3 mL/g LAH) succesively. MgSO4 (5 g/100 mL reaction solution) was added to the reaction mixture, stirred for 30 min, filtered through celite, and concentrated in vacuo to give 6-hydroxy methyl-naphthalen-2-ol (16), a white solid (79%).
