| abstract |
The present invention relates to a preparation method for a chiral intermediate for use in statins, acquired with chloroacetic acid and benzyl alcohol as starting materials via a series of reactions, namely etherification, condensation, substitution, and asymmetric reduction. The preparation method provided in the present invention has a novel route of synthesis, allows an intermediate compound to be introduced conveniently into the chiral center of a glycol via enzyme reduction, and not only is low in costs, but also is reliable in quality. The route of synthesis provided in the present invention uses raw materials of low costs, has an easy to operate process, and provides a final product of great purity and high yield. |
