    摘要: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for industrially usefully producing tetrafluorobenzenedimetanol or tetrafluorobenzenedicarbaldehyde useful as a raw material, intermediate, etc., for agrochemicals, medicines, etc. SOLUTION: Tetrafluorodicyanobenzene is reduced with hydrogen in the presence of water and an acid by using one or more kinds of metals selected from a group consisting of nickel, palladium, platinum, ruthenium and cobalt as a catalyst to provide tetrafluorobenzenedicarbaldehyde, which is then reduced to produce tetrafluorobenzenedimethanol.

    摘要: PURPOSE:To provide a simplified synthetic method for a novel C-aromataxol homologues utilizing intramolecular ring closure reaction through relatively reduced process steps without protecting the hydroxyl group in ring B by (methoxy)methyl etherification. CONSTITUTION:A C-aromataxol homologue of formula I or II (R is OH, an alkyl, an alkoxy, ethoxyethyloxy, an alkanoyloxy, an aryl, an aryloxy or an aralkoxy) and a novel synthetic intermediate of formula III (X is a halogen) or formula IV (R is an acyl). The compound of formula I (R is OH) is prepared by effecting Friedel-Craft type condensation reaction of o-chloromethyl- benzoyl chloride of formula IV with geranyl acetate of formula VII in the presence of a Lewis acid, then ring closure reaction of the product at the ring A into corresponding compound of formula V (X is Cl; R is acetyl), conversion of the compound of formula V into the corresponding compound of formula III, then subjecting the compound to the cyclization reaction with cyanohydrin.
