Abstract
2-Phenylpropane-1,3-diol was synthesized by using ethyl-2-phenylacetate,ethyl formate,sodium methoxide,and NaBH4 as raw materials.Operation process of the prepared method is convenient,and overall yield reaches to 80.1%.The purity of final product was up to 99% on the basis of HPLC analysis.Effect of solvent on the reduced reaction was investigated,and results showed that alcohol could be used as solvent with high yield and low cost,meanwhile,structure of the product was confirmed by FT-IR and 1HNMR methods.
