Abstract:
3,5 bis(hydroxymethyl)phenol belong to the class polyphenols which is widely used for synthesis of complex nuclearity clusters and has clinical relevance in the treatment of allergies. It is a key organic compound widely used in the synthesis of various biologically active products, polymer chemistry and peptide chemistry. Mainly used in synthesis of poly(aryl ether)dendrimers and monodendrons and can also be used as an intermediate for synthesizing ligand and as a reagent for alkali metals. Many literature methods are available for the synthesis of 3,5 bis(hydroxymethyl)phenol using lithium aluminium hydride (LAH) as a reducing agent. But these procedures are not suitable for scaleup due to safety concerns of LAH, tedious workup procedures and difficultly in isolation of product. In this study, a simple and scalable approach for the synthesis of 3,5 bis(hydroxymethyl)phenol was proposed. Methyl ester of 5-hydroxy isophthalic acid was benzylated at the phenol group and reduced with sodium borohydride to obtain diol. The obtained benzylated compound was later debenzylated using Pd/C under H2 conditions for desired product. To study 3,5 bis(hydroxymethyl)phenol further, derivatives was made by methylation, reduction and bromination which yielded 3 derivatives. 3,5 bis(hydroxymethyl)phenol and the derivatives were analyzed using UV Visible spectroscopy, IR spectroscopy and NMR spectroscopy.
