Liu, Bin; Zhou, Xigeng published the artcile< Synthesis of 1,2-phenylenedimethanols by base-promoted reduction of isobenzofuran-1(3H)-ones with silane>, Category: benzofurans, the main research area is phenylenedimethanol preparation isobenzofuranone reduction base silane.
An efficient method for preparation of substituted 1,2-phenylenedimethanols and aliphatic 1,4-diols that are valuable intermediates in organic synthesis, was developed by the base-promoted reduction of isobenzofuran-1(3H)-ones and γ-lactones with silane under mild conditions. Compared with traditional procedures using stoichiometric amounts of metal hydrides and alkyl reductants, the present method avoids the use of sensitive reagents and is operationally simple and a broad variety of functional groups are tolerated.
Chinese Chemical Letters published new progress about Bases Role: RGT (Reagent), RACT (Reactant or Reagent). 531-88-4 belongs to class benzofurans, and the molecular formula is C10H10O4, Category: benzofurans.
