Procedure
The present embodiment relates a method for producing catechol in which 2-deoxy-scyllo-inosose is dehydrated while heating to give (4S,5R,6S)-4,5,6-trihydroxy-2-cyclohexene-1-one, and then the (4S,5R,6S)-4,5,6-trihydroxy-2-cyclohexene-1-one is reduced with hydrogen in the presence of a metal catalyst to give (2S,3R,4S)-2,3,4-trihydroxycyclohexane-1-one represented by the following formula (3), and then the (2S,3R,4S)-2,3,4-trihydroxycyclohexane-1-one is dehydrated while heating. In the method of this Embodiment, catechol is produced by the reaction represented by the formula (7).
