What are the applications of Application

2-Methyl-3-biphenylmethanol is an intermediate of Bifenthrin

Synthesis

Carrying out a Suzuki coupling reaction between 3-bromo-2-methylbenzoic acid and phenyl substituted boric acid or phenyl substituted borate to obtain 3-phenyl-2-methylbenzoic acid, and then carrying out a reduction reaction to obtain 2-Methyl-3-biphenylmethanol, wherein the Suzuki coupling reaction is carried out at 10-150 DEG C for 1-12 hours under the action of an alkali. 3-phenyl-2-methylbenzoic acid can be directly reduced with a reducing agent such as borane and lithium aluminium hydride to obtain 2-Methyl-3-biphenylmethanol.
