3-Furanmethanol

Furfural can be oxidized to 2-furoic acid [88-14-2] reduced to 2-furanmethanol [98-00-0] referred to herein as furfuryl alcohol, or converted to furan by decarbonylation over selected catalysts. With concentrated sodium hydroxide, furfural undergoes the Cannizzaro reaction yielding both 2-furfuryl alcohol and sodium 2-furoate [57273-36-6]. [Pg.77]

Physical Properties. Furfuryl alcohol (2-furanmethanol) [98-00-0] is aHquid, colorless, primary alcohol with a mild odor. On exposure to air, it gradually darkens in color. Furfuryl alcohol is completely miscible with water, alcohol, ether, acetone, and ethyl acetate, and most other organic solvents with the exception of paraffinic hydrocarbons. It is an exceUent, highly polar solvent, and dissolves many resins. [Pg.79]

An early attempt to hydroformylate butenediol using a cobalt carbonyl catalyst gave tetrahydro-2-furanmethanol (95), presumably by aHybc rearrangement to 3-butene-l,2-diol before hydroformylation. Later, hydroformylation of butenediol diacetate with a rhodium complex as catalyst gave the acetate of 3-formyl-3-buten-l-ol (96). Hydrogenation in such a system gave 2-methyl-1,4-butanediol (97).

An approach to enantiomerically pure (R)- and (S)-2-(alkenyl)tetrahydrofurans has been devised via a nucleophilic substitution on an allylic complex of palladium(O). This substitution proceeds with chirality transfer from a preexisting stereogenic center to the newly formed center. Thus, starting from (/ )-(,E)-7-methyI-4-octene-l,6-dioI (1), an efficient transfer is realized by treatment with a catalytic amount of tetrakis(triphenylphosphane)palladium in the presence of triethylamine in acetonitrile66. After 30-45 min at 35-37 °C, (5)-tetrahydro-2-f( )-3-methyl-l-butenyl]furan (2) is obtained in 95% yield and 80% ee. The absolute stereochemistry and the optical purity [a]D —10.7 (c = 2.279, CH2C12) are conveniently determined by conversion to the known (S)-tetrahydro-2-furanmethanol. [Pg.293]
