Participants

Reaction Steps

Then, 4.94 g of 1-[2,4-bis(methoxymethoxy)phenyl]-3-[3,4-bis(methoxymethoxy)phenyl]-1-propanone was dissolved in 48 ml of a hydrochloric acid/methanol reagent, and the solution was refluxed for 8 minutes and the reaction liquid was poured into ice water and extracted with ethyl acetate two times. The organic layer was washed with water three times, shaken with a saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride, dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate and filtered, and the solvent was removed from the filtrate by distillation. The obtained residue was subjected to the column chromatography (400 g of [230-400 mesh silica gel, n-hexane/ethyl acetate=3/2, 0.5 kg/cm2). Fractions of 50 ml were collected, and the 96th to 120th fractions were combined and the solvent was removed by distillation. The residue was recrystallized from n-hexane and chloroform to obtain 453.6 mg (yield=39.0%) of 1-(2,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-3-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-1-propanone.
