Expeditious Syntheses to Pharmochemicals 1,3-Dihydroxyacetone, 1,3-Dichloro-, 1,3-Dibromo- and 1,3-Diiodoacetone from Glycerol 1,3-Dichlorohydrin Using Homogenous and Heterogenous Medium

摘要

New efficient and reproductive routes to production of 1,3-dihydroxyacetone (1), 1,3-dichloroacetone (6), 1,3-dibromoacetone (7) and 1,3-diiodoacetone (8) from glycerol 1,3-dichlorohydrin (3) were developed. The synthesis of 1 was processed in three steps from glycerol 2 (1,3-selective chlorination of 2 to 3, oxidation of 3 to 6 and subsequent di-hydroxylation) in 51% overall yield. On the other hand, 7 and 8 were produced from3, via a trans-bromination and trans-iodination, respectively, followed by oxidation and hydroxylation steps, in 38-52% overall yield. It was used homogeneous media with different reagents (HCl/AcOH, pyridinium chlorochromate (PCC), PCC-HIO4) and heterogeneous media with reagents supported on polymer resins such as Amberlyst?? A26-HCrO4– form, PV-PCC (polyvinyl-pyridinium chlorochromate) and Amberlyst?? A26-OH- form or reagents supported on alumina such as KI/Al2O3, KBr/Al2O3, in solvent free conditions.
