Chloramphenicol synthesis
- Product Name:Chloramphenicol
- CAS Number:56-75-7
- Molecular formula:C11H12Cl2N2O5
- Molecular Weight:323.13
The other synthesis begins with cinnamic alcohol, which is reacted with hypobromous acid to make 2-bromo-1-phenyl-1,3-propandiol (32.6.8), the hydroxyl group of which is protected as a ketal by reacting it with acetone, giving 5-bromo-2,2-dimethyl-4-phenyl- 1,3-dioxane (32.6.9). Reacting the resulting bromide with ammonia gives an isomeric mixture of D,L-threo-5-amino-2,2-dimethyl-4-phenyl-1,3-dioxane, which upon treatment with D-tartaric acid, separation of the resulting salts, and subsequent alkaline hydrolysis of the selected salt gives D-(?)-5-amino-2,2-dimethyl-4-phenyl-1,3-dioxane (32.6.10). Acylating this with the methyl ester of dichloroacetic acid gives D-(?)-threo-5-dichloroacetamido-2,2-dimethyl-4-phenyl-1,3-dioxane (32.6.11). The phenyl ring is then nitrated, during which the 1,3-dioxane ring is cleaved off, giving dinitrate of D-(?)-threo-2- dichloroacetamido-1-(4-nitrophenyl)-1,3-propandiol (32.6.12). Reducing the nitro group in this compound with bivalent iron sulfate gives the desired chloramphenicol (32.6.7).

Reaction Conditions:
with Novozym 435 in acetonitrile at 30; pH=7; for 24 h;aq. phosphate buffer;Enzymatic reaction;regioselective reaction;
Steps:
Effect of the buffer pH in the hydrolysis reaction of diacetylated derivative 4e
A suspension of diester 4e (100 mg, 0.15 M) and CAL-B (ratio 1:1 in weight respect to 4e) in a mixture of phosphate buffer 100 mM pH 7.0/MeCN (several proportions), was shaken at 30 °C and 250 rpm. The reaction was stopped after 24 hours, and the enzyme filtered off. The organic solvent was evaporated and the residue extracted with EtOAc (3 x 10 mL). Finally the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure, and the reaction crude analysed by HPLC (Table S1).
