4-(Hydroxymethyl)-5-methyl-1,3-dioxol-2-one synthesis

4synthesis methods
At 20-25°C, 50 g of 4-chloromethyl-5-methyl-1,3-dioxol-2-one and 45 g of formic acid were added to 500 mL of acetonitrile. The reaction was cooled to 10-15°C followed by 95 g of triethylamine added. The mixture was heated to 60-65°C and stirred for approximately 5-6 h. The reaction system was subsequently cooled to 15-20°C, filtered, and washed with acetonitrile. Collecting filtrate, and the acetonitrile was removed under vacuum to concentrate the solution. The reaction system was again cooled to 25-30°C, and ethyl acetate and water were added. The mixture was then stirred for approximately 15-20 minutes at 25-30°C. Finally, product A was obtained after further purification.

Example 4APreparation of 4-hydroxymethyl-5-methyl-l, 3-dioxol-2-oneTo a solution of 4-chloromethyl-5methyl-l ,3-dioxol-2-one (50 g) in acetonitrile (500 ml), formic acid (45 g) was added at 20-25°C and the reaction mass cool to 10-15°C followed by addition of triethylamine (95 g). Reaction mass was heated to 60-65 °C and stirred at the same temperature for about 5-6 hrs. Reaction mass was cooled to 15-20°C, filtered and washed by acetonitrile. Filtrate was taken and acetonitrile was distilled out under vacuum to concentrate the solution. Reaction mass was cooled to 25-30°C and ethyl acetate and water was added, followed by stirring for about 15-20 minutes at 25- 30°C. Aqueous layer extracted with ethyl acetate and combined organic layer were washed with brine solution. Organic layer was separated and evaporated completely under vacuum below 35-40°C. To the oily mass, methanol was added and heated to reflux temperature. A solution of HC1 in isopropyl alcohol was added and the resulting solution was refluxed for about 60-75 mins. Reaction mass was cooled to 30-35°C. Distilled out the solvent completely to obtain title compound as oily mass. (Yield: 34.6 g; 79%)
