Analyzing the synthesis route of 2,2′-(Ethane-1,2-diylbis(oxy))diethanol

The synthetic route of 112-27-6 has been constantly updated, and we look forward to future research findings.

Synthetic Route of 112-27-6 , The common heterocyclic compound, 112-27-6, name is 2,2′-(Ethane-1,2-diylbis(oxy))diethanol, molecular formula is C6H14O4, its traditional synthetic route has been very mature, but the traditional synthetic route has various shortcomings, such as complicated route, low yield, poor purity, etc., below Introduce a new synthetic route.

Compound 6-1 (235 g, 1.57 mol) was dissolved in 500 mL of tetrahydrofuran, then potassium hydroxide (41.2 g, 0.57 mmol, 82% w/w) was added, and then p-toluenesulfonyl chloride 6-2 (100 g, 0.52 mol) was added in batches, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 5 hours. The reaction solution was poured into 1200 mL of water, and extracted with ethyl acetate (400 mL*3). The extract liquid was combined and washed with saturated brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure and purified by silica gel column chromatography, with an eluent (petroleum ether:ethyl acetate=1:1), to obtain the target product 6-3 (118 g, 75%) as a colorless oil. LC-MS: m/z=305[M+H]+.

The synthetic route of 112-27-6 has been constantly updated, and we look forward to future research findings.
