METHOD FOR PRODUCING 4 HYDROXYMETHYL 2 3 5 6 TETRAFLUOROTOLUENE

摘要

A method for producing 4 hydroxymethyl 2 3 5 6 tetrafluorotoluene by bringing 4 hydroxymethyl 2 3 5 6 tetrafluorobenzyl halide into contact with hydrogen in the presence of a C1 3 alcohol solvent and palladium carbon wherein the temperature of a mixture including the C1 3 alcohol solvent and palladium carbon is maintained at 15 C or lower until the start of contact between 4 hydroxymethyl 2 3 5 6 tetrafluorobenzyl halide and hydrogen.
