Hydrochloric Acid → HCID 21468306, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

2.6 g (8 mM) of the thus-obtained (-)-4-acetoxy-4'-(3-propoxybutyl)biphenyl was dissolved in 50 ml of methanol, added thereto with 10 ml of 20% NaOH aqueous solution, and then stirred at room temperature for 2 hrs. After completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture was made to pH 2-3 by adding 1N hydrochloric acid, and then further added thereto with 100 ml of ethyl acetate, and thereafter subjected to extraction treatment. The resulting organic layer was water-washed, and then concentrated under a reduced pressure to obtain 2.3 g of 4-hydroxy-4'-(3-propoxybutyl)biphenyl (V-47) with 100% yield [[α]D20 =-9.4° (C=1, CHCl3), nD20 =1.3462.
