Abstract
Nitroalcohols were prepared by a substitution reaction from the corresponding bromoalcohols. The second nitro group was introduced via different methods depending on the carbon chain length. 3,3-Dinitro-1-propanol was obtained by an intramolecular varient of the alkaline nitration method. Whereas 5,5-dinitro-1-pentanol was given by the catalytic oxidative nitration. 3,3-Dinitro-1-propanol and 5,5-dinitro-1-pentanol were converted to 3,3-dinitro-1,6-hexanediol and 4,4-dinitro-1,8-octanediol via Michael reaction with acrolein followed by the reduction of the resulting aldehydes. Acetyl group was a good protecting group for the substitution reaction while THP was for the catalytic oxidative nitration.
니트로 알코올은 브로모 알코올의 치환반응으로 얻었다. 두번째 니트로 원자단은 사슬 길이에 따라 다른 방법으로 도입했다. 3,3-dinitro-1-propanol은 분자내 염기성 니트로화 반응으로 형성되면 5,5-dinitro-1-pentanol은 산화촉매 니트로화 반응으로 얻었다. 3,3-dinitro-1,6-hexanediol과 4,4-dinitro-1,8-octanediol은 3,3-dinitro-1-propanol과 5,5-dinitro-1-pentanol에 acrolein을 가해 Michael 반응으로 알데히드를 얻고 환원하여 합성했다. 치환반응시 알코올 보호기는 아세틸기가 좋으며 산화촉매 니트로 반응에서는 THP 원자단이 좋은 보호기이다.
